#125 Donating Their Genetic Material for Money

For the unemployed who are seriously strapped for cash, or for guys who are bored and just looking for ways to get paid for what they’re going to do anyway, donating sperm or eggs is just one of the ways to make some extra money to help supplement unemployment checks. Similar to how the unemployed might throw a yard sale to get rid of junk, they will also consider selling donating their genetic material because there’s plenty to go around and there are plenty of single or infertile folk willing to pay a hefty dollar for the unemployed’s baby makers.

After contemplating whether they would really mind having their offspring anonymously running around and deciding it’s the only safe way to have a kid without ever having to deal with a child support lawsuit, the unemployed have to research how to make the most buck for their bang. Do they have special attributes that make their genetic material worth more ie a certain ethnicity, religion, physical trait (a John Travolta-esque butt chin might be desirable to some), educational background, professional success, etc? Would it make sense to go to an impersonal donor bank, a niche fertility clinic, or would it be more profitable to advertise their greatness in hopes that someone eager to start a family will read their “Wanted: Someone to buy my totally awesome sperm/eggs” ad in the classifieds and jump for joy? If during the research process the jobless happen to discover they have terrible qualifications, such as being unemployed, that’s when they will lie through their teeth, accept the lowest payment for donation offered at some shady facility, and pray they never run into their deadbeat offspring in the future.
