If I have that kind of money, my generation will enjoy that wealth and still pass it on. No one will suffer. What's the use of wealth when your kids don't enjoy it. Well, it is his money and he has the right to will to whoever.

Yorubas say that Asekun l'owo - you work to keep your wealth.
If children don't work their own, they will suffer for sure. No matter the amount of inherited wealth. No amount!
Not understanding this and working in consequence makes Africans the poorest of the poor and a dark continent of lazy bones.

GistReport:
Actress Funmi Bank-Anthony opened up on her family background and how it rubbed off on her in the decisions she takes, in a new interview.

The granddaughter of late Sir Mobolaji Bank-Anthony, also dispelled claims of riding on the name of her late grandfather to achieve some level of success in the movie industry. She said in the interview with The Sun,

Yes, the name is household but I don’t think it has had any impact on my life and career. I can’t go to any bank and withdraw money with that name. He has done his bit when he was alive. He had his name and I am trying to make mine too. I am not even half way where I want to be, even though it is a name people can easily associate themselves with.

Funmi Bank-Anthony further revealed that her grandfather willed his 48 houses in Lagos to the motherless, as she talked about taking up the philanthropic course;

It started with my grandfather, Sam Mobolaji Bank-Anthony. When he died, he wrote in his will that all his belongings be donated to the less privileged, even including the spoons. He had about 48 houses in Lagos and he declared that all be given to the motherless (children) and that is so huge for me, because I see it that he left us to suffer. If he had left the houses in Lagos for us, I would be a multi-billionaire today, even as a grandchild. He was one of the richest men in Nigeria and he didn’t leave anything for us. That was deep for me. I see it that the things you boast of today can be taken away from you within the twinkling of an eye. It then dawned on me that I could lose the things I have. So, philanthropy came out of the fear of losing the things I have. So, I would rather give it out than lose them when I am gone, though some people take you for granted when they know you are excessively nice.

THIS GIRL IS A LIAR.
Bank Anthony had NO biological children. He adopted many children whom he trained to stand on their own.
He had a right to will his properties to whomever pleased him.
This girl should get a job and work hard for her own wealth.

What relationship did the children of decease had when he was alive? When theres was good relationship the story wouldnt be what it is today. The man knew the property wouldnt be properly taken careof, beside how many wives did he has when he was alive? These might be the reason why the man did what he did

Nice Gesture for the foolish.

It is better to set up a Trust and hire a Law Firm to manage the Estates in Trust for future bloodlines instead of willing it 100% to the less privileged who will not recognize the virtue of hard work.

10%-40% is okay for philanthropy.

Bank Anthony may have been badly hurt so bad by his family and kids that he had to do away with his wealth upon death. Probably did not want to hand over his assets to ingrates.

I could be wrong, and there is nothing absolutely wrong in being wrong.

Addenda:

I noticed a lot of discordance from commentators with zero knowledge about the mechanics of the Universe and the dynamics of Bloodlines Development, so I have to make some more additions to my earlier post. I can not respond to mentally virgin minds.

By my standard of calibration, Bank-Anthony (RIP) was not wealthy, and he threw the little he had away. My standards are the Rockefellers, Walton, Koch, Walmart, Rothschild, etc. Those are my kinds of levels on wealth calibration metrics. We do not work for ourselves alone. It is foolish to work so hard if it is just for you. Universal level intelligent souls work to build bloodlines that can focus more on Research & Development and not survival, for at least 1000years and that is 10 generations of planning and administration of wealth.

By my standard of calibration, he missed the entire points about building wealth for a bloodline. We do not work so hard for ourselves alone, we work so hard to ensure that our next 10 generations over the next 1000 years will not have to reinvent the wheel. That is why black people and many other people waste all their money on expensive toys and other liabilities and leave nothing at death.

Bank-Anthony may have been your Hero, but to me, his decision was very unwise.

Ten years ago — in May 2009 — billionaire philanthropists Bill Gates and Warren Buffett held a private dinner meeting with fellow billionaires in New York City. Oprah reportedly attended, as did David Rockefeller and Michael Bloomberg.

A year later, they revealed what the meeting had been about: Gates and Buffett had been consulting their fellow ultra-rich on philanthropy, and how to get them to do more of it.

In 2010, the two of them launched a campaign that they hoped would change philanthropy: the Giving Pledge. The idea was to persuade their fellow billionaires to pledge at least 50 percent of their wealth to charity. It was greeted with enthusiasm. “Society cannot help but be a beneficiary here, by virtue of at least some dollars and perhaps many,” concluded a thoroughly reported piece in Fortune on the secret meetings that produced the Giving Pledge.

That claim seems to have been borne out — as far as it goes. Ten years later, we are in a position to evaluate some of the effects of the Giving Pledge. Hundreds of billionaires have signed on, with Bloomberg and other big names like Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, and Mackenzie Bezos among them. More than $500 billion have been pledged, and money is already being donated to a range of causes.

But somehow, it all feels a little disappointing. Despite their commitment to give at least half of their fortunes away, Gates and Buffett are both richer than when they started. Meanwhile, many other prominent billionaires haven’t signed on to the pledge. There are now 607 billionaires in the US, up from 404 in 2010, and more than 2,000 worldwide — and of that 2,000, only 204 have signed on to the pledge.

You are correct. He donated Ayinke House (built and equipped with medical facilities) at LASUTH in memory of his late mother. No biological offspring. Her dad may be one of the children trained by the man.

My question is this; apart from 48 houses, what happened to his shares in different conglomerates where he was the chairman or director?

Sometimes it could be a sacrifice, the leading of the spirit ( Holy Spirit) can lead you to do so. You wouldn't just conclude he was unwise to do what he did even if his family had hurt him that bad. But you also have a good point, because the lord said " Keep inheritance for your children... "

His decision was excellent, not all people seek to build your so called 'bloodline wealth' and there is absolutely nothing wrong in a charity seeking to benefit the public as a whole; please refer to Warren Buffet's potential trust; your calibration or metrics cannot poo poo the kind of fortune that gentleman has acquired.

I'm sure you don't know the details of Bank Anthony's charitable bequest and the structure set up for its administration, therefore neither you nor I are in any position to say definitely that it benefits undeserving or ungrateful beneficiaries.
