# This is not Futurama!
Seriously I think if someone has done more for charities (I'm talking time not money) than Bono then they have a say. If not they should keep their winey, hypocritical cake holes shut!

If you don't have to work for a living 5 days a week and spent hours communting on crowded pubic transport have somebody to wash your clothes clean your house wipe your arse and deal with the boring day to day stuff you have more time to spend doing charitable stuff.

I find their music generally dull since 1984 but am aware that he raises the profile of a lot of world issues, so he can't be all bad, no matter how much the last album sucks.

# Bono has never given any money to charity?
While he's a smug looking arse with a very opinonated approach to life I don't think you can accuse him of never giving any money to charity.

But I could be wrong, I'm not his accountant so couldn't be certain.

# To generalize....
If MrHorrible's figures are correct and U2 made $255m last year - or in 2005 ;D ...

Split that 4 ways (each band member) = $63m
Divide by 12 (months in the year) = $5.3m
Divide by 20 (working days a month - he takes a few days off a month) = $265,625
Divide by 7 (hours of work a day - he doesn't work through lunch) = $37,946 per hour

So every hour he's standing at the front of a charity function he's giving them $37,946
And how much have you given this year?

:D (don;t bother arguing I'm joking with these numbers obviously)

(I helped save b3ta! HappyToast Groat froth, Sun 27 Jul 2008, 21:32, archived)
# I think time is of much more value to him than money anyway

So he's not buying off his conscience by giving large sums of money. Good.

Billboard reports that the chart compiles album and digital sales with box office receipts during 2005."

but the list of cocks who make their money in one place then fuck off elsewhere to save on Taxes is as long as your arm.

But they do have to be neighbours with cnuts like Phil Collins and Lewis Hamilton, so its not all good :D
