He's not just a pretty face, that Bono. It turns out, rather than putting all his eggs in one superband-shaped basket, the U2 frontman made a smart little investment in Facebook last year.
We say little, it was actually £130 million for a 1.5 per cent share but let's face it, that's probably a drop in the ocean, where Bono's concerned.
And 2011 is already lucky for the Irishman because the social networking site's value has soared this week and his £130m has already turned into £485m.
It's particularly good news for Bono - his investment firm, Elevation Partners, was once voted the "worst investor in America".
