Jacky Wu To Give All His Money To Charity Instead Of His Children
In his interview, Wu stated that he would donate all of his money to charity and not leave any of it for his kids.
For the uninitiated, Wu has three daughters and one son. His eldest daughter Sandy is a host just like her father. His youngest son Ricky is also in the entertainment industry and goes by the stage name "LucyPIE." His two other daughters Vivian and Olivia have not revealed themselves to the public.
"My children do not need me to leave any money to them. All of them are capable and can contribute to society on their own," Wu categorically stated.
As for his retirement, it was earlier thought that Wu would announce it soon. But as it turns he's had to delay it for a very specific reason.

Wu is still part of the variety show "Mr Player" as it enters its seventh year of broadcast. His plans of retiring from the show were delayed after the sudden death of entertainer Alien Huang, back in September last year.

The Taiwanese host has expressed his interest in leaving showbiz in the past as he had first proclaimed retirement in June 2009. He announced his return to showbiz again in February 2011.
As he began in the industry at the age of 16 or 17, Jacky Wu has practically been in the limelight his entire life. He says he is very moved that "the entertainment world needs him" but he still needs to live his own life.
Jacky Wu has established himself as a household name in the Taiwanese entertainment industry. He has also won many awards throughout his career. He has even received four hosting accolades at the Golden Bell Awards.
