Bono: "Facebook Won't Push Me Into The #1 Spot"

It appears that Paul McCartney's title as world's richest entertainer is secure because Bono states his stake in Facebook will not push him into the number one spot.

 

It has to be noted that Bono was in D.C. this morning to attend a fundraiser for President Obama when a "Washington Times" photog asked about reports that the U2 frontman's $90 million investment into Mark Zuckerberg's social network will be worth $1.5 billion by the end of the day making him the richest rocker on Earth.

It's been widely reported that Bono's investment company, Elevation Partners, bought up 2.3% of the company in 2009.

But Bono didn't seem too stoked about it . In fact, he cast doubt on the entire story. 

What do you think?
