Businessman sells his life on eBay

Businessman Shane Butcher wants to start a new life – so he’s selling his old one on eBay for £2.2million.

The multi-millionaire is offloading his chain of computer game shops, two waterfront homes, three supercars and even his pet dog.

He plans to use the money to go travelling with his wife before returning to Florida to set up a new enterprise.

The offer has already racked up more than 45,000 hits on the popular auction website.

Mr Butcher, from Tampa Bay, Florida, said: ‘I am selling my American Dream on eBay.
'I will assist the buyer with ownership transfer paperwork. You will be taught the ins and outs of the business. You will be granted access to all distributors and trade secrets.'

The 29-year-old has uploaded an accompanying video on to YouTube featuring a guided tour of his up-for-grabs home.

His offer seems to have caught the imagination of the public, with one user on the video-sharing website commenting: 'Dude! You're awesome! Good luck.'

While another added: 'I don't blame you. You have created a successful business and have made it big … Good luck with the sale and whatever you do next!'

Despite his 100 per cent positive feedback on the site, there have not yet been any bids for Mr Butcher's American Dream
