"But I don't want to leave great sums to the next generation. I think inheritance is quite distasteful. "My philosophy is get rid of it or give it away before you go." Craig allegedly has a net worth of $160 Million, and is reportedly raking in $25 million for his role in the upcoming 'No Time to Die'. In similar news, directing extraordinaire Quentin Tarantino has said he has never given his mother a penny except for when she had a financial issue with the IRS. Speaking on a recent episode of The Moment podcast, the Pulp Fiction director described a run-in he had with his mother at a young age. "'Oh, and by the way, this little 'writing career,' with the finger quotes and everything. This little 'writing career' that you're doing? That s*** is over." she reportedly said. Tarantino continued: "When she said that to me in that sarcastic way, I go, 'OK, lady, when I become a successful writer, you will never see one penny from my success. There will be no house for you. There’s no vacation for you, no Elvis Cadillac for mommy. You get nothing. Because you said that."
