Oliver Tree said on the April 24 episode of The Zach Sang Show that he did not believe any of his wealth was his and that his will was set so that “when I die, my will is set up that when I pass, my family, no one’s going to get a penny.” He made those comments weeks before he died in a helicopter crash.

Tree, who was single at the time of his death, insisted that if he had “a wife or kids or anything, [they're] not getting a f—ing penny.” “I’ll get my kids through college. That’s the agreement,” he added. “But there’s not going to be a silver spoon. The idea is, when I die, all the money is going to go back to artists.” He said he had set up a foundation called Dr.

Oliver Tree’s Art to collect the interest from his music. Tree noted that artists’ worth often rises after death and said he wanted his foundation to fund “the physical making of art” rather than education. “You’re not allowed to buy equipment with the money.
