It’s official: The successful entrepreneur Richard Branson is about to pick up on a new venture and make another million dollars, in spite of the financial melt-down, in another Blue Moon Opportunity (unique opportunity). It’s a new place to shop for that perfect husband. The rules however are very strict. Only women shopper’s who are genuinely looking for a husband may enter. The instructions to be followed to the letter!
“You may visit this store ONLY ONCE!” You must pay a 10% deposit before being permitted to enter onto the floor. There are 6 floors, but please note the value of the products increase as you climb to the higher floor. You may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to move right on up to the next floor, having first retrieved your deposit. However, you CANNOT descend to a lower floor, except to exit the building! Any person found contravening these rules will be immediately evicted from the building via the fire-escape. Please note the store also has a strict No-Return policy.
After reading the sign outside the shop, a female shopper rushed through the door and paid her deposit. On the first floor she read:
Floor 1 – Employed Men
She felt she needed more than that, so she retrieved her 10% and climbed to the second floor.
Floor 2 - Employed Men, Fond of Kids.
Not bad, she thought, but decided there was more. Again she got her deposit back and climbed the stairs.
Floor 3 - Employed Men, Fond of Kids and Handsome, Everyone Loves Them.
Now that sounded pretty good, however it did have echoes of her ex-husband No 2.
Floor 4 - Employed Men, Fond of Kids, Extremely Handsome, Everyone Loves Them, Trained In Housework.
Mmmm. That sounded too good to be true - her cheque book burned in her hand. But, what’s on the next floor?
Floor 5 - Employed Men, Fond of Kids, Extremely Handsome, Everyone Loves Them, Trained In Housework and Romantic
She knew she should stay and settle for this, but the 6th floor beckoned her. As she started up the stairs she saw another small sign.
‘This time when you pay your money and there will be no refund of the deposit’‘
Oh well, she thought, it would be worth the investment if it was something better than the 5th floor.
Floor 6 – Employed Men, Fond of Kids, Extremely Handsome, Everyone Loves Them, Trained In Housework, Romantic and Very Sexy.
Wow! I’ve hit pay dirt!
However, just inside the door on the 6th floor was a second hand-written sign.
‘Congratulations, You are visitor 31,989,241 to this floor. However, there was only one man available on this floor and he’s married to me.’
So as to avoid any messy law-suits due to gender bias, Richard decided to open a ‘New Wives’ store just across the street. We heard the floors were:
The 1st floor - Wives that love sex.
The 2nd floor - Wives that love sex, have a great body and have money.
We have also heard that the 3rd through 6th floors were closed soon after opening, due to lack of interest by the buyers. We also heard it is almost impossible to find replacement stock for the 2nd floor.Perhaps Richard is going to have to look elsewhere for his next million.
If you would like to take a look at a real Blue Moon Opportunity, spend a few minutes looking at Win A Resort. We guarantee this one is no joke.
