Short story:
It is reported that Bono of U2's stake in Facebook could make him the world's richest rock star when the company floats on the stock exchange. Bono owns 1.5% Facebook's shares so, at current valuations, when the company floats on the stock exchange later this year, Bono's shares should be worth just under $1bn [£630 million], making him considerably wealthier than Paul McCartney.
