New Zealand teen auctions her virginity to pay for tuition.
From the no comment zone:

A New Zealand teenager who says she auctioned her virginity online for $32,000 to raise tuition money did not break any laws but it might be risky for her to follow through on the deal, police warned today.

The anonymous 19-year-old student offered her virginity to the highest bidder on the Web site http://ineed.co.nz/default.php under the name "Unigirl," saying she would use the money to pay for her tuition. She said in a post that more than 30,000 people had viewed her ad and more than 1,200 had made bids before she accepted an offer of more than 45,000 New Zealand dollars, or the American equivalent of $32,000.

Unlike similar New Zealand Web sites, bidding and correspondence between buyers and sellers on the ineed site is private so it is not known what bids Unigirl's offer received.

1. The AU$45,000 is "way beyond what I dreamed." She's happy. I'm happy.

2. For $32,000? Not bad.
I'm pretty sure a large percentage of the population would have sex with someone in exchange for $32,000.

3. I don't believe it. The New Zealand government offers a lot of help to pay for college. nt
