Art students don't want "perfect" runway model types (too many straight lines); they prefer real people: overweight, old, people with scars, interesting tatoos, stuff that's interesting to draw, paint etc. I'm in pretty good shape, but I do show my age in other ways. They paid me by the hour, but it was more difficult than I expected. I had to strike a pose and hold it for about 30 min. They wanted longer, but I had to pee and I got a leg cramp.

Sat, 26 Feb 2011 18:35:29 +0000 http://www.mytwodollars.com/?p=1958#comment-38386 There are sperm donation facilities in virtually every large city -- two issues though. First, the women looking for these "donations" are quite picky about the genes of their future child, so the guys donating are usually expected to be extremely highly educated and oftentimes also expected to be very financially successful as well. The second issue, as I understand it, began some years ago with a lesbian couple who hired an attorney to find the donor father of their child, and then sued him for paternity -- and they won. Even though there was a contract negating such a thing from happening, if you get a good enough attorney, contracts are not really legally binding agreements -- that is just a myth. Another thing -- women reading this might laugh at the idea of being a phone-sex operator. And laugh they may until they find out how much money women in that line of work actually make. I have a woman-friend who has done it for many years -- she enjoys it, and her paycheck is unbelievable! There are sperm donation facilities in virtually every large city — two issues though.

I hear there are actually machines on the streets where you buy that. I haven’t done any of these, but there is an additional crazy way to make additional money… and it seems to be big in Japan:

I'll probably do it again next year if a lucrative enough study is available. I’ve sold my plasma in the past and I was a guinea pig this year.
