Daniel Craig Reveals His Children Won't Inherit His Fortune

aniel Craig won't be passing his money on to his children. In a new interview, the 53-year-old actor says he finds inheritance "distasteful" and wants to give his fortune away.
Craig has two children -- daughter Ella with his ex-wife, Fiona Loudon, as well as a daughter with wife Rachel Weisz. In an interview with Candis magazine, the 007 star speaks candidly about his thoughts when it comes to inheritance
"Isn't there an old adage that if you die a rich person, you've failed?" he asks. "I think Andrew Carnegie gave away what in today's money would be about 11 billion dollars, which shows how rich he was because I'll bet he kept some of it, too."
"It's definitely not going to them, and that's not in a mean way; it’s to not spoil them," he told The Telegraph. "The only thing I've agreed with [my wife] Tana is they get a 25 percent deposit on a flat, but not the whole flat."
"They don't sit with us in first class," he added. "They haven't worked anywhere near hard enough to afford that. At that age, at that size, you're telling me they need to sit in first class? No, they do not. We're really strict on that." 007 on a mission

"I don't want to leave great sums to the next generation," he continues. "I think inheritance is quite distasteful. My philosophy is get rid of it or give it away before you go."

Wait till he meets his grand kids

I’m with him on the plane seating. Anything for some peace and quiet.
Posted on 8/17/21 at 9:21 pm to BowDownToLSU
Then why doesn't he give ALL his money away immediately? Soy Boy

Imagine being so much of a proggie cuck bitch you frick over your own children to virtue signal to your proggie friends.
What a narcissistic piece of shite.

I agree. In my limited experience if the kids are worth a frick they don't need their parents money anyway. They will do well enough on their own.

Some of the worst humans on the planet are those who live off their parents wealth. They are impossible to be around.

You'll of course donate (or have donated) away anything you inherit from your parents, right?

You’ve gotta be a shitty parent to think that other random folks can spend your money better than the ones you raised.

He makes some good points. My children will inherit the land, and whatever my wife leaves them after she nags me to death.

If he wants to give it away I’ll take one or two Mil

I've told them I don't want anything of significant value from them. Don't expect it. Not my money.
Things of sentimental value are a different story.

But he's not making those points in good faith. He's making those points to virtue signal.

Do it with incentives tied to milestones.
In order to get $X by aged 21 here’s what you have to do. Then by age 30, 40 and 50.
Then it’s up to them.

That didn't answer my question.

Why would anyone discuss these matters publicly? Man that's weird.
