A day in my life.

This is a day in the life of a private jet broker. I get into the office at six a.m., three hours before my team. I like getting in early to catch up on work and establish my plan of action for the rest of the day. I then call my clients in Asia, do emails, and take more calls.

"Yeah, the price is 49.8 million dollars."

Later that morning, I met this 21-year-old entrepreneur with ambitious plans in the aviation industry. His name is Xander Futonet. He wants to revolutionize luxury travel. I then took Xander through this app that I built to help people buy their dream jet.

Before I knew it, it was the afternoon, and I jumped in the car and headed down to Saving Street. One thing most people never really get to see is that I'm on a phone 24/7. Clients, brokers, lawyers, buyers, sellers from all over the world—it never stops. I just had time to squeeze in a haircut with Chris. Great guy, always good to see him.

Haircut done, straight back to the office. Non-stop 12-hour days are common; that's what it takes to make it in this business. As I ride back, I bumped into Fabio, a man I've known for 30 years. Back in the office and straight into another meeting. These guys also have very ambitious ambitions.

There’s a prayer that we do that says, “If this is good for me, give it to me, and if it’s not good for me, then keep it away from me.” Every time I make that prayer, I’m like, “But what if God takes it from me?” My name is Amaya Zafar. I’m 16 years old …

So we have an equation. It says ( ax + 3x = bx + 5 ). And what I want to do together is to solve for ( x ). If we solve for ( x ), it’s going to be in terms of ( a ), ( b ), and other numbers. So pause the video and see if you can do that. All right, no…
