Would you sell yourself? I don't mean like a street hooker, either.
After writing about Michael Jordan's house yesterday, I went down the rabbit hole of googling weird ideas and it led me to this really interesting article.
A guy sold shares of himself for $1!
Yes!
This is the kind of weird stuff I live for.
Or, at the very least, really like reading about and makes me remember how interesting life can be.
This guy Mike is the first publicly traded person.
His shareholders have control over what he does!
They can vote on whether or not he gets a vasectomy, gets a girlfriend, and if he should give up coffee or not.
They even voted for him to become a vegetarian, even though he loves meat.
The shareholders also voted to be the beneficiaries of his life insurance if he dies!
Uhh...watch out, Mike!
Unfortunately for his girlfriend (now his ex), she didn't have enough cash to be a majority shareholder. So she didn't end up getting very much say in their relationship....aannd well now she's an ex.
