If shaq raised his kids in that upper echelon of life via his the millions he made, a statement like this shouldn't even need to be publicly made for "parenting clout".
Shaq to his kids: "We not rich, IM rich. Im not giving you nothing"

To those who disagree with Shaq here, how many teammates do you think Shaq saw go broke since he got drafted? How many calls do you think he gets from those guys who touched $10 million + asking to hold something?
Now, go back and reread what you wrote.

I’m saying don’t do it but it doesn’t matter how much you try and “teach” you can’t make them understand. The likelihood is they blow your he money. My kids will get dripfed money overtime. Not so little they starve but not enough to be living luxurious. They can earn that.

Depends on your background and family background. Financial literacy and family investments run in my family. It’s part of my culture
and boys tend to follow what their father does
fukk that struggle worship stuff. I’ve never burnt my hand on the stove but I know that shyt is hot. Thus I do what I can to keep it from happening

don't know how true it is but i heard if wealthy people leave money it gets taxed crazy so they do it another way. i wouldn't be surprised if this is the case. say something in public then do the opposite.

Dap fishing. Cuz they in fact do do that. They put their money in trusts that require them to complete a series of tasks in order to access the money. Many of them involve getting an MBA or some shyt like thatBut @Malcolmxxx_23 and everyone that dapped him told me cacs stay on code

Them Koreans do this and they do it with paying for their kids plastic surgery. It’s done in tiers. I will be doing this for my kids. How fast they get it depends on how fast the clear the terms.

Whats his alternative?
Yall know you can't read between the lines.
Of course shaq is gonna leave his kids something. He just giving them tough love and doesn't want they ass to be sorry kids that live off of him on the coli all day spending his money.
Nothing wrong with that. And actually he said he is like that on his boys because they got to learn how to be men.
Realize this a man who is one of the greatest athletes of all time who is also worth half a billion. Who was raised by a drill sergeant father who he gives credit to making him a 3 degree having, high achiever, businessman who is a HOF who never got caught up in drugs, criminal activity or losing all his money.
If any one knows the possible recipe for raising young men to do something with themselves. I would argue shaq probably does.

Trust me as a person who grew up in well to do neighborhood with plenty of white folks with money.
You spoil them kids they gonna break your heart. Cause normally parents don't stop spoiling them. If you spoiling them at 8 your probably gonna spoil them at 10, 11, 12, 15, 18, 25, 35, 40 and on and on.
White dude I know in his late 30s. Dude momma paying his rent. Now how your momma 60 plus paying your rent? Just cause she got the money? What type of shyt is that. She and her late husband done raised this fool to be a leech. And you know what it was the same way when we were kids. They gave him everything and let him do whatever.
