Did you know.....

What with the economy and all I thought I'd give a cheat sheet for anyone interested in the approximate worth of your body:

  • Brain: $10/hour for university psychological studies.
  • Hair: $1000 for 10 inches in good condition.
  • Inner Arm: $240/month for twice-a-week platelet donations.
  • Eggs: $7000 to $10,000 per donation.
  • Hip Bone: $450 for bone marrow. (Withdrawn w/ a 5-inch needle, though)
  • Body: $600 to $10,000 for pharmaceutical trials. (Depending on duration, risk, and invasiveness)
  • Kidney: $35,000 to $100,000 apiece.

Also, evidently less than 1 percent of American men take their wives names. Interesting.
