I am broke. Broke. Broke. Broke. I'll say it again, broke. Just for emphasis. I guess I can now join the BROKE college student club. Ha, enough with the brokes. Anyways, I was browsing the internet earlier and I came across something very interesting. Women can sell their eggs for a lot of money. A LOT OF MONEY, I'm talking about $10,000 per egg, people. I already get rid of one a month naturally so why not sell that one or more?! I mean, technically, I've already lost... $1,080,000 from not ever harvesting my eggs. Shit! What the hell am I doing in college? I should just sell my eggs and I will be set! But unfortunately as I kept reading into this money maker I soon realized that its actually really scary and invasive, boo.
What I learned in condensed list form:
1. They stick a huge needle up your 'no-no zone' through your internals and into your ovaries. Once there they suck out eggs all while using some sort of ultra sound technology.
2. This procedure is so invasive to your body that they have to sedate you. And it requires a recovery time.
You're welcome, thats an hours worth of reading and research condensed into 2 bullets. :)
Back to they story, so there are also requirements for the ideal egg: Round, microscopic, given by a human who's a female...kidding. But in actuality the requirements are for the donator to be between 5'-5'7'' tall, attractive, white, blond and blue eyed.
Are we sure Hitler is really dead and isn't making an army?
So the more and more I read into this the more and more I started to really doubt that I would do it, although it sounded good. On paper. One huge set back for me was that I would have a kid walking around, well grown egg?, and I wouldn't even know them. Too weird for me. So I finally concluded that I'm not going to do it but I wanted to write about it just in case someone else reading this was poor too and needed alternatives. Should also probably be female, maybe.
