Before Sting became the world-famous frontman of The Police, he had plenty of regular jobs. He worked as a bus conductor, construction worker, tax clerk, and bass guitar teacher. Today, however, Sting’s successful career has earned him a fortune of $400 million. Still, in an interview with The Guardian, Sting explained that his spending habits could mean that his six kids should not expect to receive a significant inheritance after his passing.
“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.”
