Whoopi Goldberg has revealed who will inherit her estimated $60 million fortune when she dies – as she mocked fellow celebrities who say they have no intention of passing on their wealth to their descendants.

During Thursday’s episode of The View, the 68-year-old star discussed Jeff Goldblum’s recent comments about how he doesn’t want his two children to depend on his $40 million fortune, when Whoopi confirmed she will leave behind “everything” she left behind. has a daughter Alexandrea Martin.

Poking fun at 71-year-old Jeff’s admission that he “didn’t want to help his children row their boat,” she said, “Well, you’re going to do it for them for a while because your kids are still very young! I mean, you’re not cutting them out now are you?’

She then turned to the panel and said, “How far will you go to help children find their own path? Celebrities like Ashton Kutcher and Gordon Ramsay said they have no intention of leaving money behind for their children…’ and then burst out laughing.

The Sister Act star then joked: “Yeah okay, that’s what the courts are for!” before adding, “One of the best answers is that children learn by what they see. My mother worked after her and that’s why I feel the way I feel and I leave my child everything I have!’

Whoopi’s daughter, who celebrates her 50th birthday on May 9, was born during her mother’s marriage to first husband Alvin Martin.

As the debate continued, Whoopi’s co-host Joy Behar weighed in, arguing, “It depends on the child in my opinion. For example, my child is a very good girl. She was a waitress, she knows how to work, she doesn’t spend a lot of money, she’s not a brat, she’s not a taker, so I would leave her money.”

The 81-year-old then joked: ‘But if my children are Donald Jr. Trump and Eric were, no! I mean, take for example… those two, they sure know how to hustle and make their own money….”

“But how many millions did Donald Trump himself get from his father?” she continued as Alyssa Farah Griffin confirmed that the former president inherited “at least a million” from his father.

‘And where is he now? All his money is gone and now he relies on the people he wants to vote for. So leaving the money does not ipso facto solve the problem! Exhibition A!’ Joy added.

Sunny Hostin then joined in, saying, “I agree with that and I will also say, I look at it through the lens of generational wealth. I think there’s such a huge divide between white families and black families in this country.

‘And when you talk about generational wealth, it’s not just about leaving money to your children, it’s about making sure they get a good education, it’s about making sure they prepare for life. pass university exams, it’s about passing on property so they have a place to live.’

Sunny spoke about leaving money for her children, Gabriel and Paloma, saying she wants to ‘give them an advantage’

Sunny, mother to her children Gabriel, 21, and Paloma, 17, continued: ‘It’s about leaving them money so that each generation does better.

“One of the problems that I always see in the African American community is honestly…the GI Bill, there are all these systemic problems with being able to accumulate wealth that Black families didn’t get and I’ll be damned if my Children will have to struggle even more than what I did. I’m going to give them an advantage.’

Sara Haines then added, “I think parenthood isn’t something that applies to everyone, and that includes this answer, because I’ve seen a lot of people – and I’m sure everyone knows someone – who feel entitled to things.

‘And I think giving someone something when they feel entitled to it doesn’t help them move forward in life. So if you come out and work hard with your head down, I will help you as much as you need. The other version: I’m not doing anything for you by ingratiating you.”

Alyssa, 34, then said, “That’s what I’m worried about. As someone who struggled financially when we were young, but also during my twenties, I built a work ethic.

“So I’m trying to think about the balance with kids: how do you make sure they have drive and work ethic, but also the safety net that a parent can give them, and I don’t know what the perfect answer is.”
