Honestly having “FU money” causes more problems.
Drugs
Imagine if they had made him work jobs since he was 11, and never told him how rich the family was.
Sad news for the family. They have my sympathy. Today the anniversary of my father’s death six years ago.
If in 100 lifetimes, you know you still could not hope to move the needle on your personal wealth, it would impart a certain feeling of pointlessness to a male existence.
I think many women could handle it better, because they’re not defined entirely by their work accomplishments.
A book about ESPN says it was launched with a lot of money from the holdings of
George Getty II, through financial advisor Stuart Evey.
From NY Times 2017 obit of Evey:
“Mr. Getty died of an overdose of alcohol, diet pills and barbiturates in 1973 in what was ruled a probable suicide, but Mr. Evey believed that owning ESPN would have satisfied his ambition to break away from his father.”
This will likely be Hunter Biden’s fate one day ... found unresponsive in some hotel room or bordello.
Unearned wealth can be a curse. So many depressed millionaires/billionaires with no point or purpose found in life.
The recent family history sounds like a good “Murder, She Wrote” plot.
Money doesn’t buy happiness. Or good tattoos, apparently.
Can we use their images now?
Why would he be the only heir to the Getty fortune, I wonder? Since it’s worded that way, I take it literally. “He’s the heir” - not “an heir”...there are other family members..
The world will probably suffer as any charity is likely to be ‘planned parenthood’ or the such. satan has a double win. Takes this soul and then get funding to take many more souls down the road.
Was George Soros mysterious listed in his will?
RIP.
Judging from the photo I would say drugs and alcohol.
With the money this family has they could do so much. Start a business, help others out instead of party party.
One the Getty boys was the victim of a famous kidnapping IIRC. Too lazy to look it up.
He had money and is dead. That is not newsworthy.
