http://www.alife4sale.com/ haha cool idea. He is basically selling EVERYTHING in his life to the highest bidder, house, car, jerski, spa, home cinema, the lot! He even has a job lined up for the person that wins (albeit a 2 week trial). He said he will walk out with his wallet and passport to start a new life. Sounds crazy, but cool - I reckon he'll clean up, some rich madman will buy it (well hopefully for the fella selling it). |

site works for me
it seems his wife cheated on him so he's selling everything (read cashing in) he's from England and his mate did an article is some regional newspaper, this was quickly picked up by the larger papers and now teh Aus/World media are onto it,says on his site ABC (yank edition) want to interview him. I'd say he'll clean up big styles with this amount of media coverage. Though leaving it 100 days (June 29 from memory) people may have forgotten/lost interest by then, he should get this auction started ASAP to cash in |

I remember some guy doing this a few years ago, sold his life, but it was more than just possessions, it was his friends, his hobby (surfing I think) and I think maybe even his GF?

Ahhh I thought this was the story about the family selling the entire contents of their house including two cars etc to save from defaulting on their purchase of a block of land...

I think the one from a year or 2 ago about selling his mates and everything was juest a joke, or only for a month or something.
And yeah, the guys from england, but i think he lives in perth now? I don't know if he'll get much for it tbh, most loners would only want the life if it came with a wife. |

the dude that did it before took his money to vegas to bet on red - that's what a real man would do. double up or really start a new life.
