Sheesh! I'd be a millionaire then! Imagine how dorky, boring, and "Scrantastic" my offspring would be!

There is a good British movie, name I can't remember...it was about a guy who when young donated his sperm more often then their rules allow...and ended up with 20 plus children. Some how, thru changes in disclosure laws, they got his address and they all descended upon him...very funny!!

But 20 children is probably a pretty low number for the most off spring by one male in history or in the world. I think it is much higher....

Really. So if I walk in and tell them I want to donate blood, I am A-, , do they then draw my blood and then give me $200.00 and I walk out the door? Is that it?

So I would be careful about donating sperm if I were a guy. In the future they might track you down and come after you for child support. don't be surprised.

In order to revert to the OPs post, which had nothing whatsoever to do with sperm donations, anyone contemplating donating plasma for money can easily Google and get all the necessary info available on that subject.

Donating plasma: Does it make you feel "inferior"?
yes i got a scar, and some ignorant people think your using drugs and those wo dont ask you what is that will think just that, ive went to the doctor to see if they could remove the color and scar tissue, the scar tissue is there for life, i plan on getting a tattoo to cover the color mark of the scar

i know i did a good thing but i think they should use smaller needles to help avoid marks and bruises and or up the pay amount they make money off the bottles and pay us little to nothing on what they make

Ghengis Khan.

They've done genetic studies and something like 10% of eastern europe has him in their family tree. Fascinating topic if you are interested, google on it.

Example: 2 weekly donations, 20 for the first, 30 for the second.
50 x 4 is 200 bucks a month.

Oh, never mind that then. I thought it was 200 each time you went there. I could have my car paid off in no time then.

Feel inferior, are you nuts?!? ditto those who posted about how donating saves lives. It's a win-win situation.
