At one point in his career during the 1940s, Mickey Rooney was the highest paid actor in Hollywood. But when he died at the age of 93, Rooney left all he had – $18000.00 – to his stepson and caretaker. And he disinherited his former wife and his eight kids from the will.
Rooney’s attorney Michael Augustine said the actor with a career spanning more than 80 years, died on Sunday after having problems breathing the evening before. His family is planning a small funeral for the actor.
