February 21, 2007 - A 22 year old Iowa man is seeking to become a billionaire through his website http://www.mysterybillionaire.com . Iowa is one of 8 states that does not have anyone represented in the Forbes 400.
As a 22 year old, if he is successful, he will also be the youngest person on that list. He is trying to accomplish something historic. Never before have the American people, or the world at large, directly selected a billionaire.
There have been people who have been made millionaires by the votes of regular people, through reality tv. His website invites the public to the same for him, albeit on a larger scale.
This goal can be achieved with enough people and enough repeated contributions. The United States citizens elects its senators and representatives, but only indirectly choose the people who shape our world through finance and business ownership. He hopes to achieve his goal through the direct financial support of generous Americans and the world at large, and make history in the process.
