Randy Jackson: Money, That's Not What I Want

Posted Oct 13th 2009 1:05AM by TMZ Staff

Randy JacksonEveryone expected the Jacksons to wage internal war over who gets what part of Michael's estate ... but Randy Jackson claims they already have enough money.

Randy was reacting to our story yesterday -- revealing that Katherine Jackson's 40% cut of Michael's estate will go directly to MJ's three kids when she dies. That means the kiddies will end up with 80% of the estate -- the remaining 20% goes to charity. So Michael's bros and sisters will inherit nada.

Here's Randy's take:

"The family is fine with it. Who cares about the money? We have enough money. If I cared about the money, I'd be doing a reality show and doing interviews."

4. In spite of everything, he has a point. He and the other siblings could have been giving interviews to get, writing books and other stuff to get some cash. But, in despite of it. Joe Jackson and Latoya are enjoing the moment to do this.
I don't know, but, after all, maybe some of them are not so crazy about money.

5. So, he's implying that the other brothers who are doing interviews and a reality show (all the others, I think) are just doing it for the money?

8. The amount of money Katherine gets while she's alive is up to the trustees. By challenging them, this stupid old bitch just cut her family off. Ha, ha!

10. I heard that Randy! If you and your sibling were expecting or wanting to receive money, I don't see where that is anyone's business. Anyway if people don't have anything positive to say about the Jackson family they need to shut their mouths. Every day I miss Michael Jackson more and more!

11. Janet makes here own money.
I don't know nothing about Jackie and Marlon and Randy.

And I thought they were doing a reality show?????
Did I missed something?????
Miss you Mike,rather have you back then money.

12. The only Jacksons I have a problem with are Joe, Jermaine, and Latoya. The other siblings never seemed to leech from Michael, or at least not publicly. Randy seemed to be the only family member, other than Katherine, around MJ in his last couple of years.

13.

14. I actually think that all the siblings, with the exception of LaToya, have always been quite discreet, never exploiting their connections with tell-alls or touring with their own group and using the J5 name, for instance. This may be because they have their own secrets to guard, but it is true. Also, if the stories of the various brothers being broke, working in different menial jobs are true, then they are anything but money grabbers, they are willing to work for pay which is respectable. What they should have done years ago, if Michael didn't want to tour with them, was to get together as the Jacksons and do the lucrative casino circuit, performing their old hits. They still can and will have an audience. This is why it's often a hard life for former child stars like all the Jacksons, they worked so hard as kids, didn't get much education, the career and early money usually dry up and as adults they are often ill-prepared to do something else.
