Sting’s net worth was estimated at $306 million by the Sunday Times Rich List. He’s planning to spend it all before he dies. Sting told The Mail on Sunday that he’s not giving his kids (3 sons, 3 daughters) any of his money because it would be “albatrosses” around their necks. He wants them to earn their way like he did. Thanks, dad!
‘They have to work. All my kids know that and they rarely ask me for anything, which I really respect and appreciate.
‘Obviously, if they were in trouble I would help them, but I’ve never really had to do that. They have the work ethic that makes them want to succeed on their own merit.’
Looks like Sting’s kids are going to have to make their fortune the old fashioned way. By trading off the celebrity of their dad’s name.
