The singer said his heirs “don’t need” that pile of cash to live well.
At present, Jagger said the group has no plans to follow in the footsteps of such peers as Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Stevie Nicks, David Crosby and Paul Simon — who’ve sold all or parts of their publishing in mega deals — in order to support his brood, which ranges in age from 52 to six. Jagger said, “the children don’t need $500 million to live well. Come on,” he told the magazine.
One idea Jagger suggested is that whatever the windfall is it should maybe go to charity. “You maybe do some good in the world,” said the singer who also noted that his decision to oversee the band’s business affairs more than half a century ago was mostly an act of self-preservation. “I don’t actually really like business, you know what I mean?,” added the London School of Economics dropout. “Some people just love it. I just have to do it… Because if you don’t do it, you get f—ed.
