00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:04.380
Mick Jagger is throwing around the idea
that the Rolling Stones might donate

2
00:00:04.380 --> 00:00:08.340
nearly half a billion dollars to charity
if the band sells off the rights to

3
00:00:08.340 --> 00:00:11.250
their post 1971 catalog of songs.

4
00:00:11.490 --> 00:00:14.220
In an interview with W S J Magazine,

5
00:00:14.250 --> 00:00:18.180
the rock icon said The stones could give
their money to their respective heirs,

6
00:00:18.180 --> 00:00:22.950
but then quickly adds the children
don't need $500 million to live. Well,

7
00:00:23.160 --> 00:00:23.993
come on,

8
00:00:24.210 --> 00:00:27.750
Jagger didn't name a specific charity
the band would donate the money to,

9
00:00:27.840 --> 00:00:31.290
or if the stones would actually
go through with the idea. But hey,

10
00:00:31.410 --> 00:00:33.390
it's a nice sentiment. Of course,

11
00:00:33.390 --> 00:00:37.680
whatever charity the band might donate
the money to is probably going to have to

12
00:00:37.680 --> 00:00:40.620
wait a while. The seemingly
immortal Keith Richards,

13
00:00:40.620 --> 00:00:44.370
Mick Jagger and Ronnie Wood are
still rocking, and in October,

14
00:00:44.370 --> 00:00:49.290
the Stones are releasing their first album
of original music in nearly 20 years.
