I stumbled across this site today.

Ian Usher achieved a degree of fame recently after advertising and successfully selling his entire life foro £192,000.

Usher auctioned everything he owned, his friends and his job on eBay a few months back, walking away from the transaction with only the clothes on his back, the proceeds from the sale and his passport. Since the sale, Usher has set up another website, 100goals100weeks.com, in which he has set out one hundred goals which he hopes to achieve in the coming one hundred weeks (that’s a month short of two years).

Some of the goals are pretty standard stuff; climb the Eiffel Tower, visit Oktoberfest in Munich etc. but some others are a little more outlandish; nude skyjumping, ride an osterich amongst others.

Usher has set up a blog which chronicles his experiences and it makes for an interesting read (I’m a bit surprised that only 45 people have subscribed to his posts in Google Reader). Tasks already marked as completed are:

• Attending the Tomatina festival in Bunol, Spain.
• Diving off the top diving-board in Bishop Auckland swimming pool.
• Paragliding.
• Bungee jumping.
• Snowboarding in Dubai’s indoor ski slope.
• Scuabe diving down to the Christ of the Deep statue off the coast of Genoa, Italy.
• Climbing the Eiffel Tower.
• Visiting the Oktoberfest beer festival in Munich.

Which I’m sure you’ll agree is already an impressive feat. Head over to 100goals100weeks.com to read about Ian’s progress.
