Militello yesterday gave the last farewell to his most illustrious citizen, Pippo Baudowho now rests in the family chapel in the town in the province of Catania, which gave him the birth in 1936.

At the moment the existence of one of his is unknown will therefore unless specific indications – of which they could benefit for example the historic secretary and assistant Dina Minna and the lawyer friend Giorgio Assumma – The host’s heritage by law must be divided between the two children, Alessandro and Tiziana.

Alessandro, residing for years in Australia and who, by his own admission, attended little his father but who rapidly flown to Italy to attend the funeral, was born in 1962 from Baudo’s relationship with Mirella Adinolfi. For years he believed he was the son of the manager Rai Tullio Formosa and only in 2000, when he was recognized by Pippo, did he discover the truth. The mother of the second son Tiziana, born in 1970, is instead Angela Lippiwith which the conductor was married from 1970 to 1975.

But As far as Pippo Baudo’s heritage amounts And how is it composed? Impossible to establish it with certainty even if, of course, it is a huge sum.

As told by the Messenger, only by the conduct of the 13 editions of the ** Sanremo Festival** would have earned over 10 million euros (about 800,000 each), to which the fees must be added for the numerous others leaders made over the decades and those relating to rights of one’s own image. Also the Royalties of the songs he had written, from Pink woman to W women they helped to increase its assets. Also, he would also have perceived one minimum pensionof about 900-1000 euros per month.

The earnings made during the 40 years of career have been mostly invested in properties, five of which in the capital, between the Prati area and the historic centerwhich would currently have a total commercial value of around 5 million euros.

In via della vitein the column district, on behalf of Baudo appear four apartments in the same building. Two, united in a single one, extend in height from the third to the sixth floor and would be made up of 12.5 rooms and it would be worth about 2,165,853.29 euros. The other two, on the first and second floor, would vary about 780 thousand euros each.

These properties have not been purchased directly but they are the result of a seizure arranged by the Civil Court of Rome on 14 September 1985 To the company of Alida Chelliex -wife of Walter Chiari and for seven years Baudo’s partner. The kidnapping took place after the separation from the conductor, even if the specific reasons have never been known.

In via della Giuliana in the Prati district, it is found instead a property From seven rooms, which over the years has also been the Baudo office, with the estimated market value that would exceed million euros. In Fiano Romano, moreover, he would have had a seminative land of 210 square meters.

Not only Rome and surroundings, the property by Pippo Baudo as imaginable extend also in Sicilyhis native land with which he has always maintained a very close relationship. In particular, in Syracuse he would be in possession of Cinque Terrani at the moment it seems uncultivated and of little value, and known Of ten other, including some arable fields, a almond and two vineyards, with a total cadastral value of about 30,000 euros. His investments in the construction sector do not stop here, however. It was in fact a member, in both cases with 20%, of the San Rocco Srl and Torre Grifo Srl companies, which deal with the construction of residential and non -residential buildings.

In the list of properties in possession of Baudo there are no i many who over the years has purchased and then resoldlike the villa in Torre delle Stelle in Maracalagonis, in which he spent a lot of time during the wedding with Katia Ricciarelli.

The building thatas often told by him in many interviews, in 1988 He had to give in to Silvio Berlusconi as a penalty For the early termination of the contract with Fininvest, who allowed him to return Rai. The building is always located in Rome, in front of the FAO headquarters, and after the acquisition of Berlusconi it became the headquarters of the TG5.
