YES.

HBO once did a documentary on children whose parents are wealthy. I think there were kids involved who were Rockefellers, Johnson and Johnson heirs, etc. After it aired, several of the kids involved were cut entirely from wills and were denied their trust funds because their families found the exposure appalling. Why? Because the truly wealthy and elite don't typically feel that that that type of attention is necessary. These kids wanted attention and it cost them their trust funds. I wonder if the same will happen with these kids.
