Investing in Hotties

beauty holding
Despite the rally in the stock market last week, chances are your stock portfolio is still in the shitter. Why not consider an alternative form of investment, one that could potentially provide you with a much better ROI than your 401(k) and will undoubtedly be more fun to research than pouring through those damn annual reports. Beauty Holding is a UK-based, venture-backed company that provides an online market where you can buy stakes in aspiring young models. Seriously.

How does it work? Model wannabes register and create online profiles of themselves on the website. Stalkers...I mean investors such as yourself select a model (or models) that you think has potential to make a career in the modeling industry. Each model has 10,000 shares with each share costing $1. Decide how many shares of your favorite model you want to buy and complete the transaction online. If and when your model sells all 10,000 shares, she (or he...but realistically she) will be become a "Golden Beauty" and be flown to London and Paris for a photoshoot which will be the basis of her portfolio. The company will act as a manager (10% fee thank you very much) and try to book her modeling gigs around the world. So what is it in for you? The net modeling income your model generates during the first year under contract is split 50/50 between her and her sponsors.

So is this legit? Who the hell knows but it might be fun to gamble a couple of bucks and see if you pick yourself the next Adriana Lima. Go to beautyholding.com to start investing. Im trying to convince G Luxe Crew to chip in the remaining $9,901 for sexy Japanese model lalasweet.
