NEW YORK, May 18 (UPI) -- Irish rocker Bono says he's not "richer than any Beatle" even though his share of Facebook was valued at $1.5 billion after the company went public Friday.
NME.com said Bono became the world's richest musician after his 2.3 percent share of Facebook spiked in value to $1.5 billion when the company went public. Bono bought the shares through his investment group, Elevation Partners, for $90 million in 2009.
