• The 2003 documentary "Born Rich" is 15 years old now.
• The film looks into the lives of incredibly wealthy young heirs and heiresses.
• Some of the film's participants regretted appearing in the controversial documentary.
Fifteen years ago, Johnson & Johnson heir Jamie Johnson came out with a documentary exploring what it's really like to inherit a fortune.
He delved into his own experience growing up wealthy, and also interviewed 10 other young, uber-rich heirs and heiresses. Some were friends, and others ran in the same social circles.
The interviews delved into the attitudes, taboos, and culture of the 1%, and produced an endless number of memorable, outrageous, and, occasionally, tone deaf soundbites.
The resulting film, "Born Rich," took Johnson years to put together, and resulted in two Emmy nominations and a lawsuit from one of the cast members.
But that's all in the past. Here's a look at where all of the "Born Rich" stars have ended up:
