Seth Rogen Said He Doesn't 'Hoard' His Wealth Because He's 'Afraid' He'll 'Die With Too Much Money' — And I Love His Approach To Being Rich
After starting as a teen actor in Freaks and Geeks, Seth Rogen went on to write and star in iconic comedies like Superbad and Neighbors, to name just a few. He's also a pretty major producer, having worked behind the scenes on shows like The Boys and Gen V. And on top of all that, he's a great director, heading up his new Apple TV+ series, The Studio, in which he also stars. When he's not focused on Hollywood endeavors, he's also busy making pottery and running his company, Houseplant — so I think it's fair to assume that Seth's many years of work on all his various projects have earned him a fair amount of money. And now, his latest conversation with Dax Shepard on the Armchair Expert Podcast is the epitome of Rich People Problems — the kind of problems I'd LOVE to have. Appearing on Thursday's episode, Seth joked with Dax and his cohost Monica Padman about how he'd be a 'prime target for serious robbery and embezzlement' because he feels so unattached to his money and where he spends it. (For context, a quick search suggests his estimated worth is around $80 million, so, yeah.) 'I guess I've seen over time — and I'm just so not like this — money is a thing people really hoard and have a lot of pride in: The money itself. They wanna turn their money into more money, and love how much their money is making them, and how profitable their money's money is — and that is just not how I think,' Seth said, admitting that he has 'no desire' to be expanding his wealth by making his money 'work' in other investments and assets. Despite his stance, Seth said he can totally understand why many people function in that way when it comes to finances, which prompted Dax to admit he definitely operates with a constant 'fear' that he's going to run out of money — to which Seth replied: 'That's not a fear I have.' 'I'm afraid I'm gonna die with too much money. That is my fear,' he explained. 'I don't have children, and I'm afraid I'm gonna die and be like, 'I could have had a fucking place on the beach!' I don't wanna die with $10 million dollars in the bank that I could've spent doing fun alive things… I could have been jetting this whole time!' Instagram: @sethrogen As the trio debated the topic, Dax said his financial anxieties likely stem from being raised in a home where 'money was tight.' And while Seth grew up in a similar household, his teenage acting career — which began with Freaks and Geeks when he was 16 — meant that money was soon not an issue for him. 'I actually remember as a young person being very concerned about the amount of money we had, and a lot of my friends had way more money,' Seth recalled, explaining that he went to a school where he was 'surrounded by much richer people' than him. 'It was something that I remember being worried about, but then I just… I mean, at a very young age, I started making pretty good money. I remember being like 18, and my dad being like, 'In the last two years, you made more money than I have in my entire life put together, basically.'' As you may know, Seth has talked openly in the past about him and his wife, Lauren Miller, making the choice not to have kids. And while speaking to Dax — who shares two daughters with Kristen Bell — Seth said a part of his relaxed attitude to money probably comes from not having to worry about leaving behind an inheritance. 'I think not having kids — I would imagine people wanna leave their kids money, which I guess is a good thing to do,' he said.
