Woman uses Billboard to Find Husband
18 October, 2004 | This item was filled under [ News You Can Do Without, Too Much Free Time ]
Australian Chinese woman Helen Zou has spent $5,000 to buy a billboard in Randwick for a month advertising for a husband. With the headline, Husband Wanted,” the copy lists her requirements for the ideal husband. Requirements include “good sense of humor, solid financial background, unencumbered and of Caucasian appearance and up to age 45.” Zou has never been married and says her past attempts at romance have been unsuccessful.
She is quite nonchalant about the whole thing, “I’m surprised a lot of people think this is special or unusual,” she said. “It’s Australia. There’s a lot of freedom here. If you can put up a sign advertising Coca-Cola or whatever, why not write one about a husband.

Lol, I was actually Just reading an article about “modern” dating. The article involved three experiments, one with a “Call me up” business card(or something to that effect I think it was a bit more perverted”, a personal ad buses, and the weirdest, selling oneself on ebay(item number 5515903107). I think it’s really disturbed
People are really going to do anything for love. I am quite surprised to read about this. Yet there’s seems nothing wrong also in doing this kind of thing. I mean each one of us has his/her own technique in finding for Mr./Ms. Right. It is quite a unique idea but a positive result can surely validate it. To Helen Zou, I wish her luck. The effort is worth the nice outcome that will come.
Sounds too late for me. That was nearly a year ago. Maybe she already got kids now
But yes. I agree with you!
