Joshua is rumored to live a modest life, as his motto states, despite his enormous wealth.In a 2023 interview with Louis Theroux, he sidestepped a question about his money, something he rarely talks about.The 6′ 6″ heavyweight saves a lot of money, rarely treating himself and only treating his family to special occasions.Astute businessman, he possesses a remarkable portfolio of real estate holdings, including offices in Mayfair and Bond Street.Freddie Cunningham, Joshua’s marketing manager and right-hand man, allegedly remarked that even with “a lot of money,” Joshua “doesn’t live the life that he could.”””It appears like he does from the outside. In a 2017 interview, he told Business Insider, “I’ve seen him driving around in nice cars, wearing expensive watches, and getting around in private jets.””However, every jet is sponsored. In our entire lives, we have never paid for a private jet or a helicopter. He receives a Land Rover signature vehicle.”He is not going to spend that cash. He’s getting richer.”He’s leading the kind of life that most people would probably like to see him have, but he’s doing it in a clever way. adroit.
A free £45million private jet
American sportswear behemoth Under Armour sponsors AJ and pays him a salary in the seven figures in addition to giving him access to a private plane.Ahead of his first-ever journey to the States to take on Ruiz, AJ revealed the interior of the £45 million black G550. He stated, “These types of things aren’t ordinary, in my daily life and in many other people’s daily lives, so it’s a blessing.”
“But even if I appreciate it and the door has been opened for me, I think it’s important to remember to open the door for those who have accompanied me and those who aren’t able to enjoy this kind of luxury.
“I never get carried away with these kinds of things and get too lost in the source.”
The company also supplies the former heavyweight world champion with all of his training gear, including tracksuits and sneakers, for the ring.
Additionally, Beats by Dre, of which Anthony has been the face since 2017, gives him free use of a helicopter.
Free car when his was stolen
Joshua saved £1,500 to purchаse his first automobile, a Vauxhall Astra, which he described as a “stable, sturdy car” when he was 17 years old.
Thanks to his alleged £790,000 annual agreement with Jaguar Land Rover, AJ is now able to drive about London in a fleet of luxurious vehicles, which includes a £93,000 custom-built white Jaguar XJR.
He claims that a £150,000 customized Range Rover Dynamic “looks very professional and sets a standard” and is his favorite vehicle.
However, after being taken for a trip in a magnificent £600,000 Rolls-Royce Phantom stretch limousine in 2016, he attempted to purchаse one.
When AJ went to an event in Staffordshire, he rented the incredible vehicle.
And because he was so impressed, it is said that he asked Phantom Limo Hire’s owner, John Smith, whether he would sell it to him.
Joshua also posted a picture of himself posing with the limo on Instagram.
“Work… That’s all a brother’s working with,” he said as a caption for the picture.

Free trips to Dubai, Miami and Jamaica
AJ enjoys exotic vacations with his family and friends when he’s not boxing; his Instagram showcases glitzy locales like Miami, Jamaica, and Dubai.
Some of these travels are funded by nations and resorts hoping to have the sports legend seen visiting their most popular tourist destinations.
Cunningham stated: “We have a relationship with Dubai Tourism, and they truly appreciate him and his values, morality, and оutlооk on life.
“He has a resonance in that area. There, they wish to introduce boxing. I hope we can make some progress there.
Anthony has also stayed at the Grand Hyatt Erawan Bangkok, where luxurious villas can be rented out for £4,000 a week, and the Nobu Miami Beach Private Villa, which costs £5,000 per night.

A free watch worth more than a house
Anthony was raised in poverty on a Watford council estate.
He now claims to understand the worth of the money he has earned.
He advised his Instagram followers to “spend what is left after saving, not what is left after saving.”
He doesn’t show off his wealth, though, because he still sports clothing and jewelry that cost thousands of dollars.
Because of his affiliation with upscale jewelers Audemars Piguet, he received a £350,000 watch as a present, which is more valuable than the typical house.
He also posted a picture of a £120,000 Marvel-themed timepiece on social media.
