For the Love Of craigslist

From the roommate wanted section of the San Francisco craigslist, titled “Looking for somebody to house sit for a year”:

Hey, the post is correct. I’m looking for someone in need of a room for a year in return for a fake marriage. You need to be between 30 and 40, white and bending the rules a little should not be a problem.

Given the cost of a San Francisco rental, this is a better deal than it may sound. Unfortunately for those interested in trading “love” for real estate, the post has been removed.

    I wonder why the poster required a color but not a gender. We do not know why a fake marriage is needed, but I would think that detail is important.

    That’s an interesting legal question, actually … with good luck in November, it shouldn’t matter. Definitely a gamble, though.
