Nice fat cheque for Bono

I read in last weekend's Sunday Times that U2 lead singer Bono (stupid name - reminds me of dog food)... is likely to receive an enormous cheque for $1 billion because he owns 0.0000000001% of Facebook. Apparently he invested $90 million a few years back (where do they get these astronomic sums?) in the social networking site and because the company is now being floated on the stock exchange he is going to receive an enormous pay out.

On a separate point but still to do with Facebook, I also read that Zuckerberg's company has an elaborate procedure for paying tax (or not paying it)... by channelling everything through Ireland and the Cayman Islands.

Greedy b*st*rds!

Rant over.
