Woman Offers $10,000 To Any Friend That Helps Find Her a Husband

It sounds like a joke, but it's real. After reading Lean in by Sheryl Sandberg, a book for women to take charge of their work lives, this lady in San Francisco decided to also take charge of her marriage prospects. She is offering a reward of $10000 to any of her friends who introduces her to her future husband - the money would be paid on their wedding day.

I think the remit was too wide, being both African, and the 21st century. Most of the movies she lists are actually from the last ten years, and I totally agree with her about Sinking Sands. White Waters is an OK movie too.
