Watson had no idea she was sitting on Potter fortune until 18th b’day

London, June 30: Harry Potter actress Emma Watson has revealed that she did not know she had 10-million-pound fortune until she turned 18."My dad never told me how much money I was earning. Then, when I hit 18, he was like, `I want you to understand that your money isn`t some kind of abstract concept. I want you to have a feel for what it`s worth and what you can do with it`," The Telegraph quoted her as telling Elle magazine.

She said: "The truth is I`d just like to pretend that it (the money) doesn`t exist. It`s amazing how many children are aware from such a young age about money being important or supposedly impressive. “Around the age of 13 or 14, kids used to come up to me and say, `You the girl on Harry Potter? How much do you make`?" Watson is preparing to take a break from her acting career in order to pursue education. She added: "It`s going to sound dramatic, but I feel like it`s going to be my life over as I know it. My whole life has been about Harry Potter and then all of that will shut down and I don`t know what it will be like. “I go to university in September – I`ll be doing bits and bobs at Christmas, but September feels like my cut-off point, the moment when I`ll really stop.” Emma’s new film Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince will be out next month.
