Armie Hammer ‘Cut Off’ From Family Dynasty Amid Financial Woes

Armie Hammer has been “cut off” from the family dynasty established by his great-grandfather, Armand Hammer.

“His dad won’t help him anymore and he’s been cut off, so he got to work,” a source told People of the actor who is reported to be working in the Cayman Islands as a timeshare salesman.

They didn’t even bother to include the part where they owned Senator Gore (Al’s dad) lock, stock and barrel.

If I could advise trust fund children, my advice would be to not rely upon the family fortune to get by.

Use your fortunate situation to create something of your own and for yourself. You have the ability to attend the best schools and get the best training possible for whatever dreams you might have.

He could be in a world of trouble and, being over 40, means his options are limited.

Occidental Pete was Armand’s baby and he was a great international mover and shaker. One thing I remember about him was that he helped the Russians a lot. In gratitude they gave him several Faberge Eggs and he had the best collection outside Russia. When he got old he gave his collection to the Russian national museum. Straight up guy who did a lot of good in the world.

As long as Armand has been acting in movies, you’d think he would have his own private portfolio of investments.
Maybe SAVE is a four letter word, too much of a boring annoyance to focus on.
“Save is what Poor people do.”
