Elvis was a precious gift from God. He believed his money meant nothing if he could not share it with his friends. He was a very spiritual man, a devout Christian. There will never be another Elvis Presley.He gave away most of his wealth while he was alive.
Yep! They estimated at the time of his death he GAVE AWAY 87% of his ENTIRE LIFE EARNINGS!!!! 🤯
@@kelliintexas3575 I’m not surprised. He had earned well over a billion dollars.
He would have had to get healthy and in shape to continue touring. Also maybe the drama movies he wanted to do. His movies made mi $ than his music. He could do anything!!! He was lonely even on a crowd…didn’t trust many people. Also his mama was his lifeline and security.
Had he not continued performing, he would have lost Graceland. The expense was tremendous. I think when he died he had 5 million dollars.
His best music was gospel… won two Grammys for gospel albums. When he does sing gospel with his small group around the piano, it came from his heart and soul. As he sang, one could see the glory of God in his face.
He didn’t intend to be a solo artist to start with. He wanted to be part of a gospel group and study the ministry.
He tried out with different groups but was told he couldn’t sing good enough and others didn’t have openings.
The way he started at Sun wasn’t intended to send him to stardom. This shy boy who only knew three chords on the guitar, went in there to pay to record a song for his Mama. The lady assistant recorded it since Sam was gone. She kept telling him this boy had something special. Sam called him to come in and talk. There he met Cash, JLLewis, Perkins, and couple more. It all went from there with Sam helping him get little gigs.
Elvis was not even a lukewarm Christian. He would read Madame Blavatsky on stage to the audience.
Just another reason why ELVIS IS.....
THE G.O.A.T. !!!!!!!
THE KING FOREVER!!!!!!!
A bet today's stars don't treat the people who take care of them as well as Elvis did! How do you say it? CLASS!
Elvis really appreciated them pilots ❤❤
Good thing Ron Strauss is a live to tell us these Great stories. Thank U Ron!
Wow...love these stories about Elvis and how generous he was. He was an amazing man and still so much to learn and know about him and how he was behind the scenes.
It's always sad listening to the story of the 16th August a sad day for all the Elvis fans around the world. Thank you SocialFlightLive. From New Zealand
I'm surprised once airborne Elvis Presley didn't walk into the cockpit &.say OK Ron I'll take it from here 😂
Exactly. He drove all his own vehicles, rode his own horses so why not? Haha!
@@mattskustomkreations lol agree 💯 percent 🤣😂🤣😂 Elvis saying I'll get you all home safe. Lol
Anyone an Elvis fan needs to watch this....
Thank you Socialflightlive, love watching this interview with Ron. Ron's life's journey was amazing and the icing on the cake was working for The king of rock n roll.
Beautiful Ron. I love Elvis stories, God bless you Ron
I wasn’t sure I was gonna watch this…. But once it began, I was hooked from start to the end! What a great story(s) he had to tell.
I’ve never considered myself an Elvis “fan”, but I went down the rabbit hole starting 2 years ago. It’s fascinating! What’s cool about EP is that his daily activities are perhaps the most recorded/tracked/ discussed of any single person of the 20th Century. I recommend Spa Guy for all the detective work he does to revisit locations and interviews with people like Mr. Strauss. All have nothing but love for EP.
T❤
Thank you sir for your service to our country and thank you for the Elvis stories. God Bless you
What a life Mr. Ron lived even before Elvis. Wow how interesting. Thank you for sharing your story ❤️
This was so awesome thanks to Ron for the Elvis stories
Thank you SocialFlightLive: thank you Ron love listening to you and your life with Elvis. Elvis sounded like a great boss.
Enjoyed this greatly. Thanks for sharing. You can tell how much he enjoyed his whole career especially his time with Elvis.
Thank you
I watched the whole video... and I had a grin on my face starting from when Ron began talking about his time working for Elvis. You could see Ron's face, he truly enjoyed his time flying for him. That was fun to watch. Thank You!
I love hearing his stories. Hope he tells more
What a fantastic show. Love Elvis
That old 880 was a great plane. They were workhorses. Not too many people can say they slept in Elvis' bed!
What an amazing, warm individual Ron is. Thank you for sharing these Elvis stories.
⚡️⚡️TCB ⚡️⚡️GodBless Ron ❤️🙏
That was an amazing set of stories. To those 8 people who gave a thumbs down...You fools are insane. Again great stories and love hearing the human side of Elvis.
Great interview!! sounds like Elvis was a wonderful Guy to his inner circle.
Amazing story. Thank you for more insights into EP. Loved it. ❤
I really enjoyed Ron’s stories about Elvis. No matter who it is everyone says he was just a great person and so generous with everyone. God Bless Elvis and prayers for Elvis🕺❤️🎼🎼❤️
Ron was not the only Pilot that flew Elvis.......Mr. Milo also was an Elvis pilot. " Milo High, Elvis' personal pilot takes Elvis and five others on a brief one-hour flight in Elvis newly purchased Lockheed JetStar aircraft. The Name of the JetStar was "Hound Dog"
+ Elwood David..
Well they need to tell their story own stories with Elvis
Ron would not be able to fly the plane by himself, he would need someone else, gosh I can't think what he would be called,
Ron said there was 2 pilots, 1 engineer, 1 flight attendant.
Great story Ron! Really enjoyed knowing more about the Lisa Marie. TCB ⚡⚡⚡
I also enjoy the stories the Nurse Tish told about the time they spent living on the Graceland grounds. One story she told about the dog that peed on Elvis. So funny.
I have listened to you Ron and your time with Elvis a few times, I enjoy listening to you Ron God bless you
this is great to hear him talk
Enjoyed interview
This guy is way to cool. Of course I know nothing about airplanes but his history and the stories he tells are so interesting. Loved listening to his journey to how he reached where he is today.
26:04 Elvis was in the room ☺️

Presley must have made lots of money in 1975, 76...RICH MAN !
Sooo generous, always Elvis was....

Is this broken English?
Beautiful English

So EP also owned the Jetstar, did the 880 crew also fly the Jetstar ? If they didn’t , he would have to employ at least 4 or possibly 5 pilots ?
I really enjoyed this. Thank you very much, sir. Nice to hear about things that happened that you would never hear and you had somebody close to Elvis in the pilots were close to Elvis thank you👍👨🏻🦳👍.
