According to data compiled from the FBI, a kidney goes for about $262,000 on the black market in the US. You can live with 1 kidney and basically be perfectly fine. Obviously that's pocket change for your average OT poster but poor people should jump on this

damn, I really would not have guessed the figure would be that high....



ETA: I am on my work computer and when I clicked that link, I got a message saying that it was blocked because it is innapropriate. I guess my company now thinks I am trying to sell a kidney!

I mean, yeah, why wouldn't someone do something illegal?

Maybe while they are at it, they can rob a house while high on crack. Maybe trade some elephant tusks or rhino horns.

I mean shite, might as well live it up, am I right?

I'd like to start small and see how it goes. What's an appendix going for?

When they open you up to take it, how can you be sure they don't take both and possibly more? You might wake up with no penis, no eyes, no kidneys, no liver, etc.

Yeah but then I'd leave them a bad review on yelp. I've thought of everything

Surgery is inherently risky and scary, and what if I need the spare later?
