If you have a few million bucks lying around, perhaps you’d consider buying 50% of Ashley MacIsaac’s future music revenues? If you like the odds—note that MacIsaac declared bankruptcy in 2000; that his most successful album, released thirteen years ago, sold half a million copies; and that the auction contains the sorta ominous note that “the annuity will expire upon my death”—go for it. But thanks to the Reuters article, which notes that 1.5 million Canadian dollars is somehow now equivalent to 744 million British pounds (news to us!), a way better way to get really rich really quickly might be to just hop on over to England to take advantage of that killer exchange rate.
