What is Tony Robbins' net worth?

Tony Robbins is an American success coach, professional public speaker, actor, and self-help author who has a net worth of $600 million dollars. Tony Robbins rose to fame in the late 80s thanks to his infomercials that promoted popular seminars and self-help books. Today he owns 33 companies in various industries that reportedly generate a combined $1 billion+ in annual revenue.

Early Life

Tony Robbins was born Anthony J, Mahovoric on February 29, 1960 in North Hollywood, California. He is the oldest of three children. After his parents divorced when he was 7, Tony's mom married a semi-professional baseball player named Jim Robbins. When Tony was 12, he was legally adopted by Jim and took on his last name. The family lived in Azusa, California and Tony attended Glendora High School, where he was student body president his senior year. During high school a pituitary tumor caused Anthony to grow ten inches in a very short period. As a result, today he stands at 6 feet 7 inches and still has a deep voice.

His family was quite poor and Tony took handyman jobs around town to help his siblings. When he was 17, Anthony began following the motivational speeches of Jim Rohn. He soon got a job promoting Rohn's seminars.

Becoming a Guru

In the early 1980s, Tony became business partners with John Grinder, the founder of a program called Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP). NLP is a pseudoscientific approach to communication and personal development that followers claim can cure phobias, depression, tic disorders, learning disorders and more to achieve larger life goals. Together, Robbins and Grinder launched their own seminars teaching NLP and self-help. Robbins later began developing and teaching Neuro-Associative Conditioning (NAC).

In 1983, Tolly Burkan taught Robbins how to fire-walk. This would become his signature event at future seminars and events.

In 1988, Tony released his very first infomercial. The infomercial was produced by future direct-response multi-media behemoth Guthy-Renker, makers of Proactiv. The infomercial positioned Tony as a "peak performance coach". Early infomercials featured celebrity endorsers like Martin Sheen and ex-NFL player Fran Tarkenton who praised Tony for helping them reach personal goals.

The infomercials promoted Tony's audio tapes which became extremely successful, selling many millions of copies.
