There???s a web developer named Stan Oleynick, and he???s working on a project.
As is the case with most developers, Stan needs money. So while most entrepreneurs trade equity for seed money, Stan???s trading his name (and a 10% equity stake, too). That???s right. Stan will legally change his name to that of your company, and proceed to hold the world record for doing so. That means you??? could get a lot of extra press for your company name, if Stan gets the right kind of press coverage. Doesn???t this just sound like something you???d see on ???Good Morning America????
At any rate, Stan is currently holding an auction at HoldMyRecord.com, in order to sacrifice his name to the highest bidder. And the bidding has already begun, with the highest (and only) bid coming in at $1,000. You have 40 days to decide if you???d like to seal the deal with Stan???s Buy It Now price of $250,000.
A similar capital-raising project, other than that guy that sold pixels on his website, was OurTVAd.
