- sleepyjjk, on 06/21/2008, -1/+56Wow, that article read a lot more optimistically than I thought.
Best of luck to him - I hope he gets a good amount of bids to at least pay off all his stuff and live a good life somewhere else. - inactive, on 06/22/2008, -8/+58Description was misleading. At first I thought this was about the R&B artist. Whoops.
- aptanalogy, on 06/22/2008, -1/+51It only costs $29.95, but the shipping and handling is a bitch.
- inactive, on 06/21/2008, -2/+49that would be cool to make enough money, then buy this guy's life, and give it to a homeless guy. Imagine how they would feel
- paross2, on 06/22/2008, -1/+45Lends new meaning to the phrase, "Get a life."
- Ephemeralnode, on 06/22/2008, -3/+44I always thought it was "Give a man a fire warm him for a night, light a man on fire and warm him for the rest of his life."
- alexgap, on 06/22/2008, -1/+30"His decision followed the break-up of his five-year marriage and the end of a 12-year relationship with Laura. He has declined to give details of the break-up but Laura is now with someone else. She has not commented publicly on the auction."
- maexus, on 06/22/2008, -1/+29Or.. you could just give the homeless guy 400k, I'm sure they would just as happy.
- mentallyinhell, on 06/21/2008, -1/+29What does he do then? Take the money and start a new life? Buy another? It's an interesting concept that you can sell your life and just buy a new one.

- comptonstomp, on 06/22/2008, -1/+27press release: 12 hours after united states government places iraq up for auction, still no interested buyers
- macbookhair, on 06/22/2008, -2/+28give a man a hooker he eats for a day....
- inactive, on 06/22/2008, -0/+23I'd sell my life on Ebay, but nobody wants a 2000 Buick Regal or an apartment lease with 6 months still due.
- KLowD9x, on 06/22/2008, -2/+25Damn, rug salesmen get paid enough to buy a 390K USD house in WA?
I think I need to move out that way. - jessenoob, on 06/22/2008, -1/+23BREAKING: Apple buys Iraq, naming it iRaq.
- sovietninja, on 06/22/2008, -1/+21BEER AND HOOKERS FTW!
- indian24, on 06/21/2008, -0/+18Anyone know where the auction is on ebay? I looked, but couldn't find it.
- vickers500, on 06/22/2008, -1/+18A+++++ GREAT COUNTRY. WOULD BUY AGAIN.
- mecharabbit, on 06/22/2008, -1/+18Hook a man on meth and he won't live much longer.

- ZodiacKiller, on 06/22/2008, -1/+17If he doesn't want his life, then who the hell else is going to bid on it?
Let me know when a professional bikini model body oil application specialist, with a multimillion dollar inheritance puts their life up for auction on ebay... I'll bid on that. - inactive, on 06/22/2008, -0/+16give a man a fish he eats for a day...
- skratchnerd, on 06/22/2008, -3/+19Keep telling yourself that bud.
- derek20cali, on 06/22/2008, -1/+16The auction doesn't even begin for 3 hours, douche.
- inactive, on 06/22/2008, -0/+15He tried selling it before, IIRC, and the bidding was cancelled. Dunno what the deal is now.

- Miamisun, on 06/22/2008, -0/+12If he decides to stay in the house than you can be his girlfriend.
- shaun1018, on 06/22/2008, -0/+12Sounds like a GOOD idea for a reality TV show. I with my profound hatred of them I don't say that often.
- skratchnerd, on 06/22/2008, -0/+12I want to know what happens to the person who buys his life. Is some bored rich millionaire going to buy up this dudes *****? I can't believe this would actually work. If somebody has enough money to buy his life they obviously don't need it. Very weird indeed. The picture of him sort of looked like that Jared fellow from the Subway ads.
- macbookhair, on 06/22/2008, -1/+13if you have amazing credit you would be surprised what you can buy
- Sanduu, on 06/21/2008, -4/+16Crazy people, crazy world.

- inactive, on 06/22/2008, -1/+12Stab your dick in his throat?
- ReyX, on 06/22/2008, -0/+10What the hell is wrong with you both?? The US dollar is still worth more because it takes less of it (397K) to equal $420K AUS, so the article has got it right.
I'm embarrassed to write this, but here goes:
397xUS = 420xAU, therefore AU = 397/420xUS or about 0.945US. - endlessoul, on 06/22/2008, -0/+10Hookers and blow, man.
Hookers and blow. - inactive, on 06/22/2008, -1/+11but Usher doesnt work at a peanut factory
