Come on.” He then suggested that, instead, they might leave that fortune to charity. “You maybe do some good in the world,” the 80-year-old said.

Jagger also said that he is not planning to publish an autobiography at this point. The artist also talked about the upcoming release of the Rolling Stones’ next album, Hackney Diamonds, with band members Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood, and featuring guests like Paul McCartney, Elton John, Stevie Wonder and Lady Gaga.

Which was just a day I picked out of the hat — but everyone can remember it. And then we’ll go on tour with it, the way we used to,” he said.
