Bono has vowed to continue helping the impoverished people around the world until the day he dies.
The singer is determined the current generation is remembered for something other than internet and technological advances, and he's pledged to carry on his fight for the third world.
Bono has developed close relationships with politicians globally as a result of his high-profile campaigns on issues including poverty and AIDS.
He says his contemporaries should be "the first generation to eradicate extreme poverty", adding: "I want to spend the rest of my life doing that."
