Michael did not place any restrictions on what she should do with HER Money. You are the one wanting restrictions. There is none. I certainly haven't made any excuses for her actions or condoned her actions or assumed what she is doing with the money, beyond what is reported. I do have opinions about it though, but I'm not here to place public insults or judgments on Michael's mother. We are all welcome to have an opinions as long as we don't insult or attack each other and follow the rules of how to respectfully address our opinions.
The issue is not what she's doing with "her" money but how much is being given to her.
in a space of one year her allowance has literally tripled from approx $480,000 to approx $1,336,000.
you can't deny that she's receiving an exorbitant amount of money that is
way beyond her needs, care and comfort specially when you factor in the daily expenses (Bodyguards, food, utilities, gas, vacations) that the Estate is already handling.
Then there is the bizarre consulting fee of $2,500,000. This must be one heck of a consulting specially from a woman who barely knew MJ and his affairs. I don't know whether this is a recurring annual fee. meaning is KJ supposed to be paid an additional $2,500,000 every year until she dies? I guess we will find out next year when the fourth accounting is made available.
Either way, it's clear that the executors are grossly overpaying KJ.
From KJ perspective, the goal is obviously to drain the Estate as fast as possible before she eventually dies since the estate will be in probate for some time- the executors still have to pay large amounts of debt including the scary tax bill.
From the executors perspective, they were facing an ambush by KJ and her henchmen who were raising damaging controversies about MJ, with the potential of hurting MJ image and his commercial appeal. so they had to give in at some point at least for the sake of shielding MJ from further controversies.
