Get a house for $100
post a comment | posted May 12
Fellow beard-grower James Mathias has a new job, in a new town; but a large problem. The economy has tanked and his house is worth less than what he owes. Rather than wait around and take a hit, he's taken action -- by using the internet and a contest Win a $100 House.
The idea -- enter a $100 essay contest on why you'd deserve a $100 house (in Bonners Ferry Idaho). His goal -- get at least 2500 entries, find a winner, give them the house and move to his new job. You get the house for $100 (one you never even have to live in -- you can sell it, rent it, whatever); he circumvents the horrid market and retains the worth of his home.
