He's 24 years old. He parties with Rihanna and Bella Hadid. He watches basketball games with Yao Ming.

And on Tuesday, he became a billionaire.

Eric Tse, who recently graduated from the University of Pennsylvania's prestigious Wharton School of Finance, was gifted about $3.88 billion in his family com

Tse's parents are both executive directors of Sino Biopharmaceutical Limited, and on Tuesday they gave him a fifth of the company's total issued shares "as a gift at nil consideration," according to a company statement.

Tse, who is from Hong Kong, is the latest member of Asia's booming billionaire club -- but apparently wants no part in the wealth rankings. The company statement said "he will endeavour not to participate in such rankings in his own name, and would recommend participating in such nominations in the name of the Tse Ping family."


Imagine being him.
Lucky?

The size of the gift is fairly unusual, since gifts and inheritance often have deep taxes if they are too large. So usually these things need to be done slowly, or in a way that requires more subtly to avoid paying taxes out the ass.

Technically no.

Theu could have disowned him, lost their wealth, required him to prove he is a worthy heir etc etc
