Did anyone get in on the action with the whole Facebook budget rental car coupons thing? I mean, everyone pretty much has their own profile on the social networking budget rental car coupons site, but did anyone invest in the company before it s explosion!
Back in 2009 Bono s investment firm aptly named Elevation Partners, bought a $210 million (£128m) stake in Facebook. With the site now valued at an estimated $65bn, Bono s slice of pie is now worth around $975m (£595m), a profit of around $765m or £464m!
What makes things even better for Bono, but worse for us as we read this, is the fact that U2 s recent 360 world tour broke the record for the biggest and most profitable tour ever, making a gross record of $736 million (£447m), eclipsing the $558 previously set by The Rolling Stones.
This band is not about money they are about passion. They use their talent to reach out and make the world a better place. No one will ever know how many have been inspired by their music and benevolence.
