Five Ways to Make Money Using Your Body
Here are several (legal) innovative ways to make some bucks using your body.
-
Your Locks
Big tresses are always in demand among beauty salons and wig makers. You can get as much as $ 30 for your hair. The longer the hair, the better will be the compensation. Go in for this option. You will get extra money, a new look, and you will have to spend less on shampoos and conditioners.
-
Your Eggs or Sperm
According to a BBC report, one in six British couples has problem in having a child. There is always a demand for fresh eggs and sperms in fertility clinics. So if you are a healthy male or female, you can get thousands of dollars by selling your eggs or sperms to eager buyers or you can sell them to some clinic, though it should have a solid reputation for keeping the donors’ records confidential. Otherwise you may get a call, out of the blue, 20 years later from somebody claiming to be your son or daughter.
-
Your Kidneys
There is a great demand for kidneys in the field of organ transplant. In Holland there is a proposal underway for offering life time health insurance for kidney donors.
-
Your Breast Milk
You can get as much as $ 90 for 1.5 lb of breast milk that you sell. There is a great demand for breast milk. You need not worry not having enough milk to feed your child, as new mothers have milk oozing out of their breasts all the time (I know this from my own experience). The more the milk is pumped out, the more it is made by mammary glands. So there is enough for your baby and someone else’s as well.
-
Your Blood
You can sell your blood or blood plasma. Blood plasma is the fluid in which blood cells are suspended. You get $25 every time you go in. So it’s $ 100 bucks a month. Many clinics also pay gas cards or programme tickets in exchange for blood.

Interesting to say the least, I can understand donating organs, but I wouldn’t sell my sperm, nor could I ask my wife to sell her breastmilk (even if it is constantly produced the idea of that is downright weird) interesting article nonetheless, take care

This guy john is a moron. He would sell body parts he needs, but not the ones that reproduce. Must be a christian.

Is it really legal to sell all these things, and does anyone know any websites that prove that?

No over $1000 for the eggs NOT the sperm.
