Paul fears poverty

They do say poverty is relative, so we're sure people who really sleep on the streets will enjoy a chuckle at Paul McCartney's suggestion that losing a few of his many millions would leave him broke:

This astonishing exclusive picture was taken as the star took a stroll with friends during a break from his divorce battle with Heather Mills.

At one point Macca dramatically rolled onto the ground, mimicking a down-and-out, and yelled: "This is what she is trying to do to me!"

An insider told us: "Paul was out walking with his mates in Liverpool when he decided to jokingly pose for a picture to show how Heather is trying to destroy him. He was only larking about, but making a point too."

Making what point, exactly? That he's got so used to having so much money he could buy the moon that he's lost sight of the real value of cash?
