Bodybuilding Beast Arnold Schwarzenegger Charges Insane Six-Figure Amount for One Training Session and Won’t Keep a Penny With Himself

Hollywood action hero, a seven-time Mr. Olympia, and the former governor of California are all one man, Arnold Schwarzenegger. Throughout his life, Arnold was successful in everything he did. It made him extremely popular and loved. While everyone knows what Arnold did in bodybuilding and Hollywood, few know much about the ‘ The Terminator’ does for charity.

So when Arnold Schwarzenegger charged six figures for one training session, people were surprised. But why did Arnie, a philanthropist, do this? Let’s find out.

$150,000 is a massive amount for one training session

On Saturday, Arnold held a charity auction. During that auction, Arnold trained Morris Flancbaum and his family. However, for that session alone, Arnold charged an insane six-figure fee. When a TMZ reporter caught up with Morris, he said: “This is a really special event for us every year.” Morris said he and his family flew down from Florida to support Arnold’s All-School All-Stars charity. However, when the report asked: “So, you paid $150,000 for the training session. What do you expect to get out of it?“, Morris joked: “That’s just a rumor.”

The seven-time Mr. Olympia set up ‘All-Schools All-Stars’ 30 years ago. The charity aims to provide after-school activities for kids across America. So far, it supports around 100,000 kids in 60 cities. During the event, Arnold said that 70% of American children have parents who both have to work full-time. These kids spend their time alone every day after school.

The Hollywood star said: “We’ll have after-school programs in order to fill that vacuum and help those kids with tutoring, homework assistance, studying, sports programs, arts programs, everything from three to six, five days a week.” So the money Morris gave Arnold will actually support Arnie’s charity.

Stars like Sylvester Stallone and Dolph Lundgren also attended that auction. Each guest paid $50,000 to attend and raised over $5 million for ‘All-School All-Stars’ in total. Arnold’s charity has opened a school in Uvalde, Texas as well. At this rate, the charity will only keep growing, and that is some fantastic news.
