Ive been reading about the singing star who it seems left a large fortune, but only to his only son forgetting all his daughters... If this is true what makes some people so unfair to their children, Other big stars have did much the same... James Mason.. Tony Curtis and many others.. but I expected more of Johnny Cash..

Since we have very limited knowledge of his children or the nature of their relationship with him, it's not really my place to judge.

He had four daughters with his first wife, Vivian Liberto. And only one son with his second wife, singer June Carter purportedly his true love and soulmate. That is the way it is with life, the winner takes all.

Expected more from a long-term drug addict and alcoholic who could barely take care of himself? God bless his long-suffering wife June Carter who had to treat Johnny like a problem 5 year old for decades.

Well, except the winner didn't take ALL. He did however, take most.

Unfair? Why should a child or anyone else expect a parent to leave them a fortune? The parent earned the money. It's theirs to do whatever they want with it. Who gets to dictate that anyone automatically deserves a legacy just because their parent was rich and/or famous? Certainly not fans. There are dozens of potential reasons why a child might not be left much of anything. If someone chooses to leave something to an heir, that's a nice gesture, but nothing requires them to.

I couldnt do this to any of my children even if I did have loads of money..almost typed Cash there.... I wil however leave my house to my four children to be shared equally.. One of my sons is very well off but doesnt make a bit of difference to me.. there all my children and all get the same.. Even if I didnt get on with one of them or hadnt spoken for years it would mean nothing to me... I brought them into the world and its the least I can do for them...
