Shaq, though, has always been careful about his money, at least in the latter half of his career. And has always maintained that this is his own hard earned money and his kids would have to earn their inheritance themselves. Moreover, he always likes to do a random act of charity for people who need it. And this may be the reason he may not like the huge amount of money spent by Ben Affleck on the engagement ring.
