Can't link but the gist of the article is, if you are a pretty, smart (SAT's over 1300), young, female college student, and need cash, sell your eggs on the internet for at least $10,000, and in some instances, $65,000.

Dang, what's sperm going for? 99 cents a quart?

And then discover that the procedure to extract the eggs has damaged your ability to conceive your own babies

But, that's no problem, just 'farm' it out to some surrogate. Why ruin a perfectly good body just to have a baby when some grunt is willing.
To: SauronOfMordor
Yeah.
And spend the rest of your life looking at the faces of babies and wondering if they're yours...

Some more ammo for your anti-IVF arguments.

No kidding. He should be tortured to watch her for 24 hours, non-stop. He ruined my thread!
To: SauronOfMordor
There is zero evidence to back that popular scare story.
To: Indy Pendance
Old news. I knew a girl who did this back when I was at U. of Michigan.
It's a fairly painful procedure, but if you're a smart college girl who needs money fast, I guess it's a viable option.

10K is a lot of money for a college student.

Yeah, right.
Donate egg[s] twice and you can just about pay for one semester's tuition at some schools.
