'Playboy' Offer: Show Us Your Distressed Assets

The porn industry has long depended on the willingness of down-on-their-luck women to take their clothes off for cash. Now Playboy has identified a major new reservoir of such women: the finance industry.

The men's magazine is looking for about 20 volunteers to be featured in a "Women of Wall Street" spread. To qualify, one needs only to be 18 years old and to have recently worked in a financial institution, but Playboy is hoping to entice at least a few beauties with "senior job experience," according to Reuters.

The payment probably won't be more than a couple thousand bucks max -- not nearly enough to make up for the loss of that Lehman salary. But think of it this way: You'll be able to afford a really nice cardboard box to put your stuff in. □
