What else? Well there is his job. Working in a rug shop in Perth might not be your dream occupation, but Jenny Jones Rugs will keep the position of rug store assistant open for the successful bidder if they want it. You get a two week trial period, if that goes OK it will become a three month period and finally a full time position.

There are some things, however, that are not included in the auction. A mortgage being one of them, as the house is debt free. As, indeed, is Mr Usher himself. The buyer will not be expected to pay off any monies owed, therefore.

The buyer is also only buying a life, not an identity. "Items not included in the sale are my name, my passport, my Australian Citizenship, my financial or personal details, or any personal details on the hard drive of my computer, which will be deleted." Usher reminds buyers, adding "After the sale I will still be me, you will still be you!!"

If you want to make a serious offer on the chaps life, then you have to register at the ALife4Sale website first to deter the fake bidders.
