Shaq to his kids: "We not rich, IM rich. Im not giving you nothing"

[RennisDeynolds]

he'll invest in businesses or a trust that will be left to them, no direct access they'll have to maintain his franchises etc.

 

[Michael's Black Son]

he also said he would invest in their companies if they presented him with a real business opportunity that they have really worked on and did the leg work for.
It would be nothing for one of his kids to get a 4 year business degree then open a chain of carwashes or some shyt and have daddy pay for it, then boom turn key business

exactly.

the kids are all trying to play ball when they could get full rides at Columbia Business School and leverage Shaq's connections in the business world. No one is telling Shaq no so these kids could still try and fail until the find something that works.

Giving your money to charity over family is crazy to me

 

[Mike the Executioner]

If you have money, it's your obligation to give your kids everything they could ever ask for.

Not all of us have rich parents that will just buy us whatever we want. "Ooh, papa, please spoil me. "

It teaches them discipline and when they finally achieve it theyll appreciate it

Rich cac boomers never did that to their kids

Just passed everything without question

Cause they stay on code


Fred

He said they need to get bachelors and masters, them rich cacs are the same way.

If their children don't align with what they want, they will get disowned or left to fend for themselves.

The rich people i know who raise self aware, responsible and successful kids do the same thing Shaq is doing....

[humminbird]

still don't agree with it
almost every white kid gets a break from some relative
my nieces and nephews will get my cash.
if they lose it. it's on them
not giving a cent to some dumbass charity
edit i read the article in full now
this is different
he just wants them to develop skills and not rely on his cash for easy living
that i can understand and agree with

Jackie Chans kid was a fukk up though

which one?

 

[Renegade47]

Alec Baldwin just became an accidental murderer because of white nepotism. There's no shortage of ain't shyt trust fund babies ruining businesses, politics, etc.

Shaq isn't leaving his kids homeless under a bridge. He's telling them not to forget they have to work. Can't have them thinking they can be losers because he'll hand them a bag.

he became a murderer cus the staff that made sure shyt like that didnt happen was on strike

I was able to save up over the years and I was able to pay for the kids school (luckily they all want locally) and buy them their own (used) cars or give them my old ones now 2 out of 3 are on their own as productive adults, I'm sure Shaq will have his kids taken care of when he passes, but he's trying to keep them hungry, at least that's what I'm guessing.

It’s not like the O’Neal name is his or theirs to carry on

Indeed
Maybe people have short memories, or maybe they just forget what doesn't support their stances, but in the past year or so, at least two successful entertainers had family business leak with their ADULT children "calling them out" for no longer giving them money.

Brian Mcknight and Kirk Franklin

I'm tempted to bump those threads so that those questioning Shaq now can read their old comments.
