Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger insinuated that he may not leave his entire fortune to his 8 children.
The 80-year-old musician made the comments while discussing the potential sale of the Stones’ post-1971 catalog. The Wall Street Journal interviewer said a huge sum of cash may be less complicated for his kids, but Jagger insisted he wasn’t selling, saying, “the children don’t need $500 million to live well. Come on.”
The rock star added that he considered donating his wealth to charity. “You maybe do some good in the world,” he said, also noting how he’s not planning on publishing an autobiography.
Jagger also mentioned how the idea of his music living on has changed in the technology era. “You can have a posthumous business now, can’t you? You can have a posthumous tour,” he told the outlet. “The technology has really moved on since [ABBA’s recent “Voyage” virtual show], which I was supposed to go to, but I missed it,” he went on.
Jagger’s oldest child is daughter, Karis, 52, who he shares with Marsha Hunt. He has a daughter, Jade, 51, with ex-wife Bianca Jagger.
The musician shares four children with ex-wife Jerry Hall: daughters Elizabeth, 39, and Georgia May, 31, and sons James, 38, and Gabriel, 25. The pair was married from 1990 until 1997.
He had son Lucas, 24, with his model girlfriend Luciana Morad Gimenez. Jagger’s youngest child is his son Deveraux, 6, who he shares with Melanie Hamrick.
Jagger also has five grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.

Elsewhere in the interview, the “Gimme Shelter” singer mentioned how having a young child helped give his life purpose, especially now. “I have this really wonderful family that supports me. And I have, you know, young children—that makes you feel like you’re relevant,” he told WSJ.
The Rolling Stones made headlines earlier this month when they announced the release of their first new music in 18 years in the form of an album called, “Hackney Diamonds.” The album features guest stars including Elton John, Lady Gaga, Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder, and Bill Wyman.
“Hackney Diamonds” will debut October 20.
