Even if you are one of the biggest rock stars in the world…it doesn’t always mean that you can get anything that you want. Mick Jagger found out that even though he has oodles of cash on hand, it won’t always guarantee him the items he desires. Recently he offered up £100,000 for a restored ice cream truck, belonging to Guiseppe Della Camera. Camera who found the dilapidated vehicle rusting on a farm, poured his heart and soul into reconfiguring the van to its original quality. Camera bought it for £2000 and then threw another £35000 into it to achieve that classic ice cream truck “look.” He has promised his 12-year-old daughter that he will drive her to her wedding in the ice cream truck (we’re hoping that he plans on playing that lovable tune on the way to the church!)
Even though Jagger’s offer was quite lucritive, considering the profit he would make, he turned down the money from the rockstar if favor of keeping a promise to his daughter. Guiseppe has been in the ice-cream business since he was a just a small boy and still sells cones to sticky fingered youngsters for £1.50 each….and he seems much happier with that profit that the £100,000.
