[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is no excuse for this. I read an interview with Kid Rock where he said that his grandchildren's grandkids would be set for life. That's what extremely rich people do. Depp is just trying to pass the buck.[/quote] Kid Rock came from a wealthy suburban family that owned a chain of car dealerships. Depp certainly made a lot more than Rock, but Depp came from a troubled, abusive, and poor family. [b]Wealth maintenance is a mindset that is not inherent in all of us. [/quote][/b] Lol, what the heck does that even mean? When you are talking in terms of 650 million dollars you would really have to work to blow threw that stack of money. Kid Rock simply don't spend every last dime he made. He invested a chunk of his money and he and grandchildren will benefit from him doing so. He is leaving a legacy for his heirs. Depp has spent it all on himself and appears to be intent on taking it all with him. I feel bad for his kids who have grown up in such a spendthrift la la land - that is all that they know. What happens to them when they are left with nothing? [/quote] Okay, so take Depp's wealth, frivolity, and hugely bad decision making out of the process: nothing is going to happen to his kids. They don't have an inherent right to an inheritance. They will survive the same way most of the world survives when parents die and there is no inheritance. What a stupid argument. It is his money. His kids are taken care of right now while they're kids. How he chooses to use it or lose it and how much is left later is separate from them entirely.[/quote] My point is that his kids have grown up knowing a luxurious lifestyle that the rest of us will never experience. They don't know what it's like to live a normal life with 2 parents who work 9-5 jobs. They don't have a clue what it's like to travel in an old minivan and pile into a cheap hotel room for the night. They have no idea what it means to work on their own car, do their own laundry, mow their own grass, cook their own meals.... They can't have much in the way of basic life skills. And Depp is leaving them with nothing. He sucks as a dad and as a human being. The kids will survive but they are going to have a hard road with some very rude awakenings ahead of them. [b]Can you imagine going from having villas and mansions all over the world, yachts and personal chefs....to living in a crappy apartment and searching your old pockets for change to use in the vending machine? [/b] I hope they can approach it like an adventure because life is gonna change in a dramatic way for them...[/quote] yeah.. this has happened to many people and they survived. however, it is not even likely to happen because 1) while deep has no cash he appears to possess a lot of valuable real estate 2) vanessa probably made decent money herself 3) the kids are famous and will find well paid gigs (the daughter already has). just being a social media influencer (which they automatically are) will bring them decent amount of cash 4) the kids will have numerous opportunities to marry into wealth[/quote]
