8. Macaulay Culkin
Macaulay Culkin emancipated himself from his parents when he was 14 years old. At the time, Culkin’s parents were involved in a bitter and costly divorce; they were fighting for custody and for control over Culkin’s earnings. Culkin ended up taking both of his parents to court and he was finally able to gain control of his earnings and cut his father out of his life entirely.
