Ben Affleck brought his son down to earth when he wanted $6,000 shoes: “I have money, you’re broke”

A video was posted on Instagram in which Ben Affleck’s son asks him to buy him a pair of $6,000 sneakers, and the actor replies, “I have money, you’re broke.”

Ben Affleck is part of that category of rich people who fear that, having everything at their disposal, their children will grow up spoiled and ungrateful, believing that they can do absolutely anything.

The famous American actor said he wants to keep his teenage son grounded and understand that wealth doesn’t fall from the sky, but you have to work to have it, reminding him: “I have money, you’re broke.”

Images of a scene from this time have reached social media, posted by the store itself where Samuel, Ben Affleck’s 13-year-old son, showed interest in a pair of $6,000 sneakers.

“You like those because they’re expensive,” the protagonist of the film “Air” said as his son admired a pair of Dior Air Jordan 1 shoes. When his son replied that he always liked the way the model looked, Ben Affleck joked, “You have to mow a lot of lawns for them.”
