A huge portion of his estate was used to establish the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. HHMI manages over $20 billion and gives out grants for medical research.
That began with the proceeds from the sale of TWA. In order to avoid taxes on the sale he put the proceeds into a foundation which didn't do much until after he died.
The ONLY reason that Howard Hughes became hooked on drugs was because of his plane crash. He sustained, a crushed collar bone (Clavicle) and six (6) broken ribs as well as extensive and severe burns. His were very severe injuries, and he was on Opiate medication for months. This is why he became an Opiate addict. He was a great man. Doctor George Whitehead
Whitehead is also Cappibianco Capano Ben Johnson Bob Ryion....hooked on what you gave him..... Codeine is a horrid bogus & you know it wasn't morphine. Then Jemmy Baker lll. Secretary of State. Loomis. U are a bad Shill making this statement......Are u. ""Fishing"". Eat this😊😊😊😊😊😊
I remember, when he died, feeling astonished that someone who some said was the world's richest man would die in a perfect imitation of poverty. That's like some kind of fairytale curse.
We all inherited from Howard Hughes in terms of the Hughes Medical Foundation which is doing some of the best medical research in the world and currently has an endowment of around $10.5 billion, all or mostly all from the sale of Hughes Aircraft and its subsidiaries derived from Hughes during his lifetime.
I’m shocked at the government just didn’t appropriate & absorb all the funds for themselves. That’s what usually happens to people’s money that die without having Wills.
To much money and because of that to much lawyer`s involved. And lawyer`s never pass on a possibility to make money. Just think about how much they had billed in all this decades till 2010.
I saw a video roughly a week ago on You Tube exactly about this, seemingly a creditable one,but who knows. It said Hughes was driving thru death valley about 25 years before his death. His car quit and man with a truck helped Hughes reach his destination. Hughes asked what he owed him and the man said nothing. I was making the trip anyway. Hughes took his name and contact information and said I will compensate you to this one day. Upon Hughes's death a man , probably a lawyer, l didn't catch for sure, brought the man, it just occurred to me he owned a small auto shop and gas station a check for 150,000,000. I don't know if this true but no knowledgeable person would argue that Hughes was a certified eccentric.
I live close to the coast in the northern part of South Carolina. When I bought my land, in 1992, the plat supplied with the deed shows the land adjacent to mine at the rear of my property to be owned by "Howard H. Hughes, ETAL."
What happened to the morman will ? He mentioned it before he died ? The place gaurds some still might be alive only a few less than 8 people saw him regularly why was association of watergate the reporter were outsiders
Howard Hughes was a descendant of the minister of George Washington -- so he had a lot of distant relatives and they knew their family tree pretty well
Hughes had a medical institute that’s become the biggest medical eraser h institute in the world.His money afterwards helped thousands that needed medical needs. I wish he had known his money went to help others.
My great grandma, had her own unique life, of being a Hank Williams “groupie” dated him and a band mate, one of who may or may not have been my great grandpa, anyway, apparently she received $5k from Howard Hughes estate. Tbh the Hughes family mental health is an issue to most of us, I myself am somewhat of a hermit with OCD, and I can’t eat any food that I don’t fix myself.
On Polk Street just over the R.R. tracks to the right. The factory. He his bury on Washington street. Across the from the Bread factory, south side of the street. look for small gate. Houston Texas.
When these teenage kids have too look in too a dead person's money and see who got it , it shows how much of a life they do not have and how hard is it too copy a documentary that someone else worked on shows how big of frauds they are why aren't they charged with copyrights
The only negative thing with this is is they are showing people it is okay too compite fraud you might as well steal from someone it is the same thing as robbery
What about the actress Terry Moore Hughes, his estranged wife? I remember her in pictures after recieving $350K in that estate. She passed on within the past year, by the way.

What are your thoughts on the people who tried to claim his fortune?
Greedy ghouls are everywhere. Money brings them out of the mud where they live.
Any time there's money to be had, the parasites come out of the woodwork...
Not much.
🎉
I’m fascinated by this man !
Cheers from San Diego California
Chula Vista rocks!!
@@karencawthorn3173 Chula Wanna rocks if you speak Spanish.
A truly remarkable and gifted man.
Martin Scorsese's biopic is a cinematic masterpiece! A lot of Hughes' life story was left out. Scorsese could still do a sequel

How do you know
That began with the proceeds from the sale of TWA. In order to avoid taxes on the sale he put the proceeds into a foundation which didn't do much until after he died.
I wonder if he were alive today would his fortune be up there with Gates and Zuckerberg
No it doesn’t. 😝🤣🤣😂

If you look at that crash in L.A. into that house rooftop and the photos, it is a sheer miracle that he survived at all. I was a military pilot.
I think Hollywood was bad for him..
I remember, when he died, feeling astonished that someone who some said was the world's richest man would die in a perfect imitation of poverty. That's like some kind of fairytale curse.
His accident was traumatic for him, causing him to hide away, developing his behaviors.
Hughes had at least 3 separate plane crashes.
@@debrajohnson382 His last one affected him the most it seems.
One of the most fascinating men of the 20 th Century. Really a genius. RIP Howard.
Jason Robards!
♥️shine on Jason… he had a few challenges in his life. I’m grateful for the film roles he played
The Legendary Howard Hughes 🪄✨️
I grew up with howard hughes cousin who is one of the direct heirs. Been an interesting journey. She is one of my 'moms'
20 thumbs up….. nobody believes you 🤷♂️
As a boy growing up in the 1960s he was my hero...
The lawyers seem to have inherited most of the estate.

It would have but the case was too high profile
Maybe our government wasn’t so horrible back then.
I am sure they took their portion from estate taxes
To much money and because of that to much lawyer`s involved. And lawyer`s never pass on a possibility to make money. Just think about how much they had billed in all this decades till 2010.
Money brings strangers out the woodwork.
Especially relatives
Not me. If I didn't earn it I don't want it.
Imagine if with these DNA genealogy companies, a direct is found? Lost son or daughter.. Would they have claim over any of the estate today?

Thanks for this.
What a sad legacy
How much went to the stinkin lawyers? That should be a matter of public record at probate.
Howard Hughes, had a daughter, who died in a car crash in the 1920's, according to another documentary I've seen.
I live close to the coast in the northern part of South Carolina. When I bought my land, in 1992, the plat supplied with the deed shows the land adjacent to mine at the rear of my property to be owned by "Howard H. Hughes, ETAL."
Bless his soul
Incredible how he never left a will
I always wondered who got his money!
Thanks. This is believable.
The headline says "Here's who inherited Howard Hughes' fortune after his death" I guess they couldn't inherit it BEFORE his death now could they?
His true will and testament was how he bequeathed his knowledge upon the aerospace industry.
Lol that was a good one thanks for the laugh 😂
The thing is that poor people will never die in a plane crash. Count your blessings😅
Interesting stuff
My grandpa went to school in Houston with HOWARD N I ENDED UP KNOWING HIS KIN AC TECH DAVID. GRANPA BORN 8 11 1900
One relative walked away with $90 million. Except for a cousin or aunt he had not seen in 50 years, the others he never met.
What happened to the morman will ? He mentioned it before he died ? The place gaurds some still might be alive only a few less than 8 people saw him regularly why was association of watergate the reporter were outsiders
I don't believe he did not make a will unless he was completely mad 😡
He was tho
he didnt have any close family or friends....so after ya dead why worry now?...
@@jaydenbrock1834 best comment on this thread 😆
Who cares about a will when you are dead ?
😂
Howard Hughes was a descendant of the minister of George Washington -- so he had a lot of distant relatives and they knew their family tree pretty well
I heard his caretakers had to fly in his favorite flavor of ice cream.
Go to Staples buy a last will and testament form, fill it out.
They are free online now, too. DAV offers one.
@@davidb2206 that's good to know.
At least he didnt have to worry about what was going on above ground😮
🤔 I liked HH - very interesting man(to me). Technically, we all are cousins/ relatives.
Hughes had a medical institute that’s become the biggest medical eraser h institute in the world.His money afterwards helped thousands that needed medical needs.
I wish he had known his money went to help others.
The institute was a tax dodge when he was alive, fortunately it now has a useful purpose..
R.i.p peanut
I had a friend that was adopted as a child. He was saying he thought Hughes was his real Bio Dad... No resemblance.
My childhood hero...
My great grandma, had her own unique life, of being a Hank Williams “groupie” dated him and a band mate, one of who may or may not have been my great grandpa, anyway, apparently she received $5k from Howard Hughes estate. Tbh the Hughes family mental health is an issue to most of us, I myself am somewhat of a hermit with OCD, and I can’t eat any food that I don’t fix myself.

I believe Melvin
What Howard Hugh’s died…… my step gran pappy in law? Can someone refer me to a good estate lawyer ?
Well, you can't say Howard didn't have a sense of humour.
they all won the lottery...
30 million in my pockets would take care of myself and my better half. Move to a good townhouse.

HUGHES, another CIA casualty, allying with then enveloping a rising entrepenuer when weakness is revealed.
What about the actress Terry Moore Hughes, his estranged wife? I remember her in pictures after recieving $350K in that estate.
She passed on within the past year, by the way.
Howard Hughes is my cousin.
HERE'S WHO STOLE HOWARD HUGHE'S FORTUNE AFTER HIS DEATH!!
Oh, is that what everyone wants? Me to make a new will? Oooooooooh, well is there a reason you screw with me? £ucifer
🎉
died of tertiary syphilis
Musk should pay attention he is getting more Hughes like every day.
ha ha @ the woman who going to use the money to buy the ice rink she worked at and burn it to the ground
He would have be proud of her!!!
No one forced her to work there if she was so unhappy why didn't she leave
Nihilistic thoughts and vandalism are EVIL. How would it help OTHER PEOPLE? Get OTHER-focused in your life, not narcissistic. How can you SERVE others? Also live by the Golden Rule.
Will & testament
Howard Hughes reminds me of Elon Musk in a lot of ways 😮
Drugged. Bred . CIA. Nite😊😊
Such a great man however, you wouldn’t see musk or trump donating money like him for a great cause, would you.
