Ian Usher - Selling His Life in eBay


Have you heard of Ian Usher? The British guy from Perth, Australia who's going to sell off his life in eBay. The auction in eBay will be closed at noon on this coming 29th.June. Usher hoping the final beat will hit up to $500,000 for him to fund a new life.


Usher, who is from County Durham in Britain but moved to Perth in 2001, set up a website (http://www.alife4sale.com) for the sale. The site opens cheerily: "Hi there, my name is Ian Usher, and I have had enough of my life! I don't want it any more!". 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.


Usher said he got the idea from a friend who had the notion of selling his life through a newspaper advertisement during a bleak period but never did it. He says he's not the first person to put his life on the block.
