Jackie Chan

Jackie Chan worked hard to get to where he is now. He put in the time and effort to be an established actor, stuntman, singer, martial artist, and director. Despite his $350 million net worth, his son should not expect anything in the future. The celebrity feels confident that Jaycee, his son, would not need such an advantage: “If he is capable, he can make his own money. If he is not, then he will just be wasting my money.” This logic is common among celebrities who want to instill resilience and self-worth among their children. According to the martial artist, he is going to leave all of his wealth to charities.

Simon Cowell

Simon Cowell became a household name during his time as a judge on American Idol. The music producer was already a rich man back then, although his $95 million annual salary increased it further to $550 million. It is easy to assume that his only son, Eric, is going to be privy to it. This is not the case as the music legend shared, “I’m going to leave my money to somebody. A charity, probably — kids and dogs.” It turns out that he does not “believe in passing on from one generation to another.”
