Jackson's Will

[BillBrown]

Here's a copy of Jackson's will.
His estate is estimated at $500 million.

He named his mother, his three children and six other relatives.
He left out his father and all of his siblings.

One of the headlines on Yahoo right now is that his ex-wife is not in the will, like it was a big shock. Someone correct me if I am wrong but isn't it pretty normal for people to leave their ex-spouses out wills and other financial windfalls, especially when they require your death for said windfall to be paid.

Nothing's normal when it comes to Jackson.

My understanding is that the woman and Jackson were still best friends.
They supposedly married, for legal reasons, so she could bear his child.

I could have sworn that I heard on the radio yesterday that the three children are not Jackson's biologically and he never formally adopted them. Was this a joke?

I heard that also. It was also mentioned that Debbie Rowe is not their bio mom either, that she was just a surrogate and that her ex-boss, a dermatologist was the actual father.

How true that is, I don't know, but I'm sure most will come out if there end up being custody issues/fights.

what a total mess. in reality, I have heard he owes more than his estate is worth, so no one will get any money if true.

I think I heard last night that Jackson had made 1 1/2 billion dollars just off of the Beatles catalog he owns.
He wasted more money in a day than we'll see in a lifetime.
