Kevin O'Learyis one of the wealthiest individuals in the world, but his path to success was not easy. He has previously revealed how he was cut off by his mother at an early age, a moment that served as an awakening and pushed him to start earning his own keep.

Looking at where he is today, there is no doubt that his mother's approach was part of his success. He studied and worked hard, leading to his riches. As of this writing, Mr. Wonderful has an estimated net worth of $150 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

Now, it is O'Leary's turn to pass that philosophy on to his own children. Despite his wealth, the Canadian businessman does not want his offspring to be entirely reliant on him and instead wants them to adopt the same discipline and drive he had on hispath to success.

O'Leary shared how he purposely cut off his kids after college. This means that after attaining a degree, it would be up to his kids to figure out their next step.

'I set up a trust. It does not provide to anybody anything after they finish education,' O'Leary shared.

He went on to explain that, as a parent, he covered educational expenses to ensure his children had the best possible start. However, aware that some children may take education for granted, he introduced conditions to ensure they remain accountable.

'From birth to the last day of education, full free ride. Everything paid for but if you drop out of school or you don't make it to college, you're cut off,' he added.

One of his kids, Trevor O'Leary learned this the hard way. The Shark Tank star shared a conversation between them when Trevor was still a teenager.

The elder O'Leary admitted that Trevor wasn't exactly bright in high school. Kevin urged his son to do better and the response he got was far from reasonable.
