Real-estate bigwig and onetime Secret Millionaire participant Marc Paskin is yet another guy trying to improve his love life via a billboard, and it's as racially uncomfortable as you'd expect from an out-of-touch rich white man.

It's an AOL account, too, which makes me wonder if Paskin still has a rotary phone in his house somewhere.
