He's right. If that money were sitting there waiting on him, he would be doing absolutely nothing. He is wealthy in his own right and doesn't need her dough...which SHE inherited herself. Mom done good. So did he.
But not when it's government handouts, somehow it's different then?

Who said that?
This is the whole point of posting the article; he does what he does without the handout. Why is that a bad thing? I thought self-sufficiency was a positive, yet I get a bunch of whiners muttering "what choice did he have" and "that's stupid, take the money". That's the sentiment I didn't expect. Funny how that works.
Well at least you see the comparison, even if you have to inject a blanket strawman in search of a political dig.
CNN talking head Anderson Cooper's mom is Gloria Vanderbilt, and as such worth millions, but it's not going to him.
"My mom's made clear to me that there's no trust fund. There's none of that," he told Howard Stern. "[And] I don't believe in inheriting money."
Cooper, 46, said that inherited money is an "initiative sucker" and a "curse." Because of that, he's grateful that his mother always gave him an incentive to work.
"Who's inherited a lot of money that has gone on to do things in their own life?" he asked. "From the time I was growing up, if I felt that there was some pot of gold waiting for me, I don't know that I would've been so motivated."

Passing on massive amounts of wealth is probably not the greatest thing for anyone. Not passing on any of it though, doesn't really make much sense.
Quite true. In the end, though, inherited money is money that is not confiscated. It is not immoral.CNN talking head Anderson Cooper's mom is Gloria Vanderbilt, and as such worth millions, but it's not going to him.

Why do leftists applaud this mindset on inheritance, but can't apply the same mindset to government handouts? There's absolutely no difference, money not earned is money not earned.

Leftists do all the time in defense and expansion of welfare.

The state taking it and pissing it away isn't a good solution either. Given the available choices, I got to go with the idea that it's my property to do with as I please and that includes deciding who gets it when I die.
The Vanderbilt wealth has been a mixed blessing. Quite a few heirs died young.
Gloria herself was a little girl lost.
She loves that Anderson is gay. She has Kathy Griffin over for sleepovers fergoshsakes
Cooper has worked hard. And at $6 million a year salary, he don't need no stinkin' Vanderbilt money.

Having Griffin to her house just proves she has to be a nutjob.
Link to her loving he's gay?
Like a true liberal, Anderson Cooper doesn't want anyone to have an inheritance and that's supposed to mean something. It's like Donald Trump saying no one should own a home.
I wonder what AC would be saying now if he was a bar keeper in a gay bar? And 'mommy dearest' had made it clear that he would inherit millions when she died?
"I don't want the millions mommy"? Ya right.
He only got the gig at CNN b/c 'Jane' and 'Gloria' are/were board members for the same charities and have been friends for decades.
"What's your boy Anderson doing Gloria?" "Not much". Tell him to call Bill Wienstien at the network. Tell him to tell Bill to give him a job".
Where did he say that he doesn't want anybody to get an inheritance? I'll save you time. He didn't.
Funny watching the responses from USMB's fake conservatives. They hate handouts until they like handouts. Just say you don't like Anderson Cooper. At least be honest.

Ooooooo...so close to saying we hate gays. What stopped you?
