About the Winner

Just for the outrageousness of it and perhaps a twinge of boredom, Nathan Davis and Edgar Kim launched a zany website, "Reserve A Spot In Heaven" to see if it got anyone's attention. What they quickly learned was that they had a business opportunity on hand, and their second brainstorm,

Reserve A Spot In Hell, was even more of a sizzler in the word-of-mouth-driven online arena. And that has won Davis and Kim top notch in this year's Top Ten Wackiest home businesses. At either site, you can secure your spot in heaven or hell, depending upon where you feel you're headed and need to be accomodated. If heaven and salvation aren't your cup of tea, they assure visitors that there's vacancy in hell among the good-for-nothing wrongdoers.

They've now tacked on the ability to reserve space for someone else you might have in mind, too. Very wacky. Definitely the wackiest of 2009!
