The Fighting Over Elizabeth Taylor’s Estate Has Begun

This is so sad,Elizabeth is no with us anymore and people are already fighting for her money   .EVERITHING FOR MONEY......... :cry:  :evil:


Sad story number 2: The Fighting Over Elizabeth Taylor’s Estate Has Begun

Whenever a rich person dies the drama begins. Apparently, Elizabeth Taylor can’t RIP just yet. The iconic actress and philanthropist has amassed a fortune that is estimated between $600 million and $1 billion and the battle over who will manage her estate along with what she will make in death has started.

Via Pop Eater: I’m told her last wish was for her lucrative jewelry collection, valued at a staggering $150 million in 2002, to be auctioned off and the proceeds given to the Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation and amfAR.

“Elizabeth also made arrangements to split the rest of her fortune between her four children and other charities that she cared so much about,” a close friend of the star’s tells me. “But what is causing all the problems is not the money she made during her life, but rather what should happen to the millions she is going to make after her death  (  :?  this might sound strange but it's true).”
Beauty product giant Elizabeth Arden has already announced they’ll continue selling Liz’s still-popular fragrances — they made $77 million last year alone — and there are countless other opportunities, like film re-releases and merchandising that the estate could profit greatly from.

“The one thing she didn’t do was understand that, much like Elvis and Michael Jackson, she might be worth more in death,” my source says. “This is what has already started to cause friction between family, business managers and the many charities that meant so much to Elizabeth.”

The two-time Oscar winner has been worth a lot of money for decades. In 1996, when she divorced her last husband, Larry Fortensky, documents showed her net worth was $608.4 million. The New York Post reported that during the 1990s, Taylor earned about $2 per second, or about $63 million per year. Her perfume, White Diamonds, has never stopped selling.


LIKE MICHAEL SAID MONEY ARE THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL!!!

Oh I think Michael KNEW/KNOWS he'd be worth more dead and so did a lot of others!!!  Now, it's a fact because his name is cleared, his debt is cleared, he was the second highest celeb earner and he has the world's largest recording contract.  AND THAT'S WHILE DEAD!!!!!  Oh, yeah, he knew...as he laughs all the way to the bank.

So true... :lol: I'd say that Michael is "out-thinking them".

I always hate to see people, especially family, fighting over a loved ones possessions or money. I'm surprised that Liz didn't know or make provisions for this as she did her charities. Hmmm...I wonder what is in her will.

[all4loveandbelieve]

Money is a number one enemy in a family. Siblings will fight to get more, they are suppose to have this and that. If there is a will, why all this fight. Liz should have put someone in charge for her perfume. I had a feeling this would have happened. Oh well Dear sweet Liz, Rest in Peace, let them fight their own battles.

[suspicious mind]

think liz knew what the deal was and will be and took care of the details . not only was this lady smart but she had a determination not to be made a fool of .jmo

As this interview as posted I do have to say that is was very revealing.  I know Michael did go through the terrible trial after this, (makes you really wonder about a set up by Sony/Mattola don't it?) but, even then, Michael was warning of conspiracy and also voicing how he wanted to do, WHaT?  FILMS!!

LOL - Michael did say it that way, didn't he. A lot of people say that even though it's misquoted from the Bible. No matter though because we know what Michael meant

I was listening to the the interview and I could hear DD near the end. The way he phrased his words and say "uhhh", LOL. so funny. Michael - we love you.

Okay - so has anyone heard of the coalition that Rev sharpton was forming to investigate fraud to artists...particularly black artists? I never heard that he did anything with that. Perhaps that's part of this? I can't imagine that Michael just let that all slide under the carpet. Blessings.

[all4loveandbelieve]

I agree, and I said it in a different way. In reality I meant it the same way Michael said it. Believe me I know. I went through it and it is not pleasant. MICHAEL IS RIGHT, MAYBE HE MEANT THAT FOR HIS SIBLINGS TOO. THEY ARE MONEY HUNGRY.  sorry I had to say it.

Hello there Applehead,

That's what I wanted to know, if Michael actually said that, and I got my answer! Well he is in good company because a lot of people miss quote that particular verse of scripture. But we all must understand money is not the problem. It's the love of it that causes not only family members, but men in general to turn against each other. God allowed money to be created, the evil comes in what man will do to get his hands on it every since it came into being. And that is why the desire of it is condemned throughout the New Testament. I understand what Michael and others are trying to say, that some men will do anything to get it. I guess that's why God refers to it as "filthy lucre" :!:  

Stay blessed, because you certainly are :!:  :!:
