Wealthy Celebrities Opting Out of Inheriting Tradition
Some celebrities, like Simon Cowell and Marie Osmond, are breaking the tradition of passing on wealth to their kids. Gordon Ramsay and Ashton Kutcher echo this sentiment, emphasizing that just being rich shouldn’t guarantee a life of luxury for their offspring. Ramsay states, “It’s definitely not going to them. And that’s not in a mean way; it’s to not spoil them.” Similarly, Kutcher emphasizes that growing up privileged doesn’t mean a guaranteed inheritance-driven lifestyle. In Hollywood, a growing number of stars openly express their decision to withhold money from their children. They stress the importance of their kids working hard to forge their own fortunes, challenging the notion that inheritance is a given privilege.
