TL;DR

Neil Patel reports a personal monthly burn rate of $120,000–$180,000, paying entirely from his own income (not expensing to companies). Major categories include a $25,000/month whole life insurance policy (used as an investment vehicle), ~$57,000/month on staff (driver, nannies, cleaners), ~$12,000/month in property tax and HOA fees, private flights, and a private chef.

Key insights

  • The whole life insurance policy costs $25,000/month but functions as an investment account that builds value and can be borrowed against, unlike standard term policies.
  • A dedicated driver service with company decals allows parking privileges (e.g., staying in front of a casino or pulling up to an airplane gate) — treated as a marketing arrangement for the limo compan
  • Private flights are used not for luxury but to optimize time, enabling same-day round trips (e.g., Vegas to Utah and back in time to pick up a child from school).
