Can someone explain to me why the top guys who are millionaires don't have their own high end gym?  Why is a guy like Jay Cutler working out in a gym with other people all the time? Is it EGO? Is it to look at pussy? What is it?

The presence of other people facilitates motivation. This "social facilitation" phenomenon is well documentet in scientific psychology. It's easier to work very hard physically in the presence of others.

If i had money to burn, I would put an extension on my house and build a gym with all the best equipment. I would install a top of the line sound system too. ;D
I hate people, so right now I train at 4:30 am when the gym is virtually empty. I don't need other people to motivate me.
If i built my own gym at home, I would probably find a good training partner and charge him 500 bucks a year for a membership at my gym. lol jk
Exactly, I prefer gym time to myself
so I don't understand this:

Social facilitation is a fact for human beings as a group. However, there are obviously individual differences in how we are influenced by others.

Personally, I feel that it enhances my effort and arousal: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_facilitation
