Jagger, frontman The Rolling Stones, is one of the richest rock stars in the world, with an estimated net worth of more than $500M

In the vibrant age of 80, Mick Jagger, the iconic frontman of The Rolling Stones, continues to defy the notion of slowing down, marking six decades of rebellious spirit, colorful career, and an unparalleled zest for life.

 

Over the course of the band’s 61-year journey, Jagger has evolved from a rebellious troublemaker in the ’60s to a knight of the music realm, amassing a fortune estimated at over $500 million. Despite the infamous 1965 incident in London that solidified The Rolling Stones’ rebellious image, Jagger has become one of the world’s wealthiest rock stars.

Today, he reflects on the band’s notorious era, emphasizing that The Rolling Stones were just a group of innocent teenage musicians, not intending to cultivate a rebellious image.

While the rebellious spirit brought fame, it also had serious consequences for some band members. Guitarist Brian Jones tragically drowned in 1969 at the age of 27, succumbing to a life of excess in alcohol and drugs. Jagger and Richards themselves faced drug-related charges in 1967.

 

From the band’s inception, Jagger and Richards penned some of their most iconic hits. Their on-stage chemistry, with Jagger’s energetic performances and Richards’ distinctive riffs, drew comparisons to The Beatles’ John Lennon and Paul McCartney.
