Sizzling Stocks

Sex and money are two of the most popular topics on the Web, so it was just a matter of time before someone put them together. That fateful day came Friday with the debut of SexQuotes.

“This site gives users not only valuable financial information at no cost, but that little extra reward for investing wisely--or consolation during the kinds of disappointing days the market has been having lately,” said Seth Warshavsky, president and chief executive of Internet Entertainment Group, the Seattle company that owns the site.

SexQuotes, which IEG bought from a San Francisco software developer, allows users to keep track of their individual portfolio, including stocks listed over the counter. But there are far more options for customizing the erotic images that come with the quotes.

Warshavsky was in the news earlier this summer, when he exposed the Our First Time site--which purported to offer a Webcast of two honor students losing their virginity--as a hoax.
