Ashton Kutcher Has a Good Idea?

He has, if you think leaving nothing to your children when you die is a good idea.

“My kids are living a really privileged life, and they don’t even know it,” Ashton said during an appearance on Dax Shepard’s podcast, Armchair Expert. “And they’ll never know it, because this is the only one that they’ll know.”
“I’m not setting up a trust for them,” he continued. “We’ll end up giving our money away to charity and to various things.”

We’ll see. It’s not like he and his wife Mila Kunis are cutting off their children entirely.

Rather than just giving his kids money, Ashton Kutcher, who is also an investor, said he’s planning to make his children work for a living. He said he’d be a potential backer for their future businesses, but they’d have to pitch him just like everyone else does.


“If my kids want to start a business, and they have a good business plan, I’ll invest in it. But they’re not getting trusts,” the 40-year-old actor confirmed.

The proof will be in whether the two stars actually treat their kids’s pitches “just like everyone else.” Either way, Ashton’s idea is not a bad idea; it’s simply one among many ideas about how best to treat our children when we die and if we’re rich enough that what we do with our money matters to our children.
