Why did John Lennon leave his son Julian out of his will?
A trust fund was set up for Julian when he was a baby; he came into the trust (then worth about $250,000) at age 25, but refused to touch it for personal reasons. He spent much of his own music royalties re-acquiring items that had belonged to his father.
Yoko Ono gave Julian a $100 weekly allowance in his teen years, after seeing a news photo of him washing dishes in a restaurant (the same as his grandfather had done, when John shut him out of his life), and later large cash gifts in an attempt to make peace with him. Julian has said he would have preferred to be given some of his father's music copyrights, to share with his own family.
What was John Lennon's second favorite color?
It should be noted that there is no agreement on what his first favorite color was-- some fan sites claim he said it was green (allegedly because he liked nature). But other sites (which transcribed old interviews from fan magazines) said he liked bright colors, and a couple of others said his favorite color was brown. Thus, since we don't really know for certain what his favorite was, it's difficult to say what his second favorite was.
