Chas, is a 40-year old San Franciscan and he’s looking for a wife. Instead of going the traditional route, he launches a website and offer $10,000 for the person who introduces him to his future wife. He’s copywriter for an ad agency and his friend is a photographer. That may explain the high-gloss quality of his... uhm... personal ad....

In Chas’ own words: "If this helps me find a soulmate, it'll be worth bazillions. But I don't have bazillions. $10k seemed to say, 'I'm serious but not insane,'" and "I'm an optimistic guy. I try to see the good in things. Despite a world full of angry drivers, suicide bombers, and people who litter, life is too short for negativity."
In spite of the romantic premise though, people have been bombarded by mushy sentiments on TV, the internet and other channels that have turned out to be more a matter of finding fame than finding love. So what do you think?
