Jose Canseco‘s daughter, Josie — a Victoria’s Secret model — is firing away at her critics … insisting she never received a leg up, at least monetarily, from her dad or anyone else in her family.
Josie unleashed on her haters in a series of Instagram posts on Monday morning … claiming to be entirely self-made.
It’s unknown what was exactly said to her or about her that set her off — but she clearly wanted to let everyone know that despite her dad’s huge MLB career, she grew up far from wealthy.
“Everyone claiming I came from all this rich money because I’m a ‘canseco’ do ur research,” the 26-year-old said. “My ‘family money’ was blown by the time I was 6/7 w bankruptcy n I had to work my ass off to not only sustain my ‘family name’ but also pay my bills cause no one paid that s*** except me.”
Josie said there were times in her life when she was in debt, barely making $100 a week, and living in tiny New York apartments packed with models.
“My family is broke,” she said, “and I dont get the advance of a family that was rich.”

Josie did acknowledge she has “been graced with a privilege of being born within a family that earned what they earned” — though she added, “I really went through that s*** n busted my ass the traditional way.”
FYI — Jose reportedly made over $40 million in his 17-year MLB career. He filed for bankruptcy back in 2012.
