Bid For Your Entrepreneur Wife - Part III

from the give-it-up-already dept

Ah. She's back again. Our favorite unmarried female entrepreneur who has accomplished everything she's ever wanted in her life at the ripe age of 24 - except finding a husband, is now saying that she's doing background checks on the two highest bidders, and plans to marry the highest bidder without a criminal record. I still think this is all a big publicity stunt (which, of course, we're adding to). I'm also a bit confused as to who would find someone who put her hand in marraige up for auction attractive?

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    Errrrr

    From the article:
    "Hammond, from Birmingham in central England, said in her ad that part of her goal was to "prove that the Internet is not full of cyber-geeks, there are normal people out there.""

    I think her definition of NORMAL is a little skewed. Or do a LOT of people auction themselves off for marriage?
