It’s been a tough feat being the frontman of the Irish rock band U2. With Bono on the lead, the group was able to sell over 170 million records worldwide. The band has won a total of 22 Grammy Awards, more than any other music group had ever received. In 2005, they were instated into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Bono is quite known for having a fat bank account with roughly an estimated amount of $700 million.

He is also known for his work in charity, which he did a number of times. His passions, such as reversing the effects of climate change on our environment, have been inspiring. As part of his philanthropy, he co-founded the Debt, AIDS, Trade, Africa (DATA) with the attorney and activist Bobby Shriver, along with Product Red that aims to raise funds for Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria.
