Who Bond is modeled after

I have recently been informed that James Bond was modeled after the one and only, Alexander the Great. For Alexander the Great, the world was not enough! So, where do we know that from? That's right, Pierce Brosnan in The World is Not Enough. Now, being that it was actually Elektra King and Renard who felt that the world was not enough, Alexander the Great would have more in connection with them. So, is it possible that Bond was based on Alexander? Sure. Is it true? I can't say.

Good to see you've already posted twice. As for the Bond character's connection to Alexander the Great, I haven't heard that before. Here's Ian Fleming's Wikipedia entry, if you haven't read it before:
