TYT: Billionaire Offers Insane Amount To Turn His Daughter Straight - Publicity Stunt?



"A Hong Kong billionaire reportedly just doubled down on his offer of a massive amount of money for any man who can win the heart of his lesbian daughter.

Cecil Chao first made headlines in September 2012 when he announced the initial offer of $65 million after his daughter, Gigi Chao, reportedly eloped with her female partner in France.

Chao then told The Financial Times in January 2013 that the offer still stood, and if a man could woo his daughter he "will give them a moderately deluxe life." He added, "I would not force her to marry a man. But obviously I would, from my point of view, prefer her to be married and to have grandchildren.""* The Young Turks hosts Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian break it down.

Reminds me of that movie, where this was this guy who had to get married in order to get his 10 million dollar inheritance. Someone put it on the front page of a news paper "Would you marry this man for ten million dollars?" And suddenly, there's a hundred brides chasing him.

Except... this is even more stupid.

She could live with her girl friend. I'd live in the guest house.

At least that's what about 1,000,000 guys are thinking right now!
