Sting Loves His Kids, but They Aren’t Getting Trust Funds

“I told them there won’t be much money left because we are spending it! We have a lot of commitments. What comes in we spend, and there isn’t much left.

“I certainly don’t want to leave them trust funds that are albatrosses round their necks. 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.”

That’s right. If one of Sting’s children want to buy a brownstone in Brooklyn for their motorcycles, their all-cash offer will be made with money they earned and saved and now decided to spend. “They have this work ethic that makes them want to succeed on their own merit,” he said.

He’ll spend his millions saving the world in various ways. But we can’t help but think his work as a father is on more way that he’ll leave this rock better than he found it.
