I realize even a cheap one like the Cirrus will run over $1.5 million with operating costs of $300,000 year, but do any of you big timers and heavy business travelers think about it? Maybe buy one for personal use and put it in a jetshare program? Serious answers only please. Thanks.

If you are serious. Check out Flexjet. Buying a jet just doesn't make financial sense to me when there are much better options

I think you can find one on Craigslist for rich people aka Robb Report, for cheaper than that.

I dont own one, but I am a pilot, I fly all over the world meeting up with beautiful women.
I once flew to 3 countries in one day, I only realised when I landed in country 3 that I wasn't even in an aeroplane..it was pec power alone that took me.

Rich people charter a private plane. Owning one is a money pit.
