Daniel Craig says that he won't leave any inheritance for his kids GLASS ONION: A KNIVES OUT MYSTERY, (aka KNIVES OUT 2), Daniel Craig, 2022. © Netflix / Courtesy Everett Collection Although Craig loves his two daughters dearly, he revealed to Candis Magazine in 2021 that he has no intention to leave his fortune to his children. “Isn’t there an old adage that if you die a rich person, you’ve failed?” he said. “I don’t want to leave great sums to the next generation.” He further stated that he is not the first person in history to do that. "I think Andrew Carnegie gave away what in today's money would be about $11 billion, which shows how rich he was because I'll bet he kept some of it too," Craig explained. "But I don't want to leave great sums to the next generation. I think inheritance is quite distasteful. Philosophy is: get rid of it or give it away before you go."
