A lot of these young X Factor "temporary stars" think they've "made it" and will have high earnings forever... so they blow all of the money they earn in the first couple of years, then their career tanks, and they end up with no money or assets to show for it. ONE day (surely ) Jedward will finally become adults, and they'll have a massive bank account waiting for them.

Unless Mamma Jedward is actually off on her private yacht as we speak

It's quite common for Trust Funds not to be accessible until the Trustee is older, I've heard 30 is a common age for that sort of thing. I don't understand why having (what sounds like) responsible parents ensuring their children's fortunes last is a bad thing

The military comparison seems a bit silly and judgemental. When you are looking for reasons to hate on someone then perhaps it's time to consider why that is.

True, and they are immature for their age, but that's sort of the point. They would blow through that money. And it really isn't just because they are as childlike as they are - like I said, a lot of people who get famous in their teens have blown through their money (and lost the ability / popularity to make much more) by the time they hit their mid 20's.
