Celebrities have been pleading in recent years to leave their children with no money after death, a move that many of us have applauded.
Whoopi Goldberg is the most recent celebrity to create news when she divulges her plans for her wealth; nevertheless,
in contrast to other celebrities, Goldberg intends to retain her wealth within the family.
The host of The View recently revealed her plans for her rumored $60 million windfall.
The 68-year-old said, ‘One of the great answers is children learn by what they see.’ ‘I’m leaving everything I own for my child because my mother worked her behind her back,’ the speaker said.
Goldberg, who shares 50-year-old daughter Alexandrea Martin with her first husband Alvin Martin, intends to give ‘everything’ to her.
Many people believe that giving our kids an inheritance makes sense, but recently, famous people have expressed their views on the exact contrary.
‘$500 million is not necessary for the children to live well. When asked if he would give up any of the money he would receive from selling The Rolling Stones record catalog, Mick Jagger responded, ‘Come on.’
Gordon Ramsay said in a similar vein that he had no intention of supporting any of his kids, even though he and his spouse had decided to put down a twenty-five percent deposit on an apartment but nothing more.
