Paris Hilton Inheritance Going to Charity
Uh oh. Looks like Paris Hilton may have to fall back on some of her “Simple Life” work experience – her grandfather, Barron Hilton, announced that he will be donating 97 percent of his fortune to charity. 97 percent of what is currently a $2.3 billion fortune, that is.
The money is from the sale of Hilton Hotels Corp. and the pending sales of Harrah’s Entertainment Inc.
Barron Hilton, 80, will put the tidy fortune into a charitable trust for the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, which helps with a variety of projects, including clean water in Africa, educating blind children, and providing housing for the mentally ill.
It was Conrad Hilton’s wish “to relieve the suffering, the distressed and the destitute.”
So, what does this all mean for Paris Hilton? Will her celebrity status earn her enough money to pay the bills?
