I have heard a lot of cons about this. NEver done it though. One guy said I'd be better off putting an ad to clean homes to make Money. I rather sell my sperm at a sperm bank. Less side affects than selling plasma.

5% of the people give blood and 25% of the people will need blood sometime in their lifetime

The Mayo Clinic has to buy 25% of it's blood from the Red Cross

I just donate blood. Next visit I am donating plasma. Takes quite a while longer, but one bag helps more than a few cancer patients. I've watched others do the plasma and they are very comfortable and it has been reported that there are rarely bad effects, and in more than not, a feeling of being refreshed.

it's quick cash but i am scared i might faint or pass out - i know it would drain me of energy losing plasma and i would have to eat a lot to replenish my energy. i need cash bad though

I donate blood, and do not sell my plasma.

My son and I talked about the blood marrow donation thing last night, due to it being brought up in the threads. I bring him to my blood donations and let him watch, and talk about what happens to the blood after it is donated.

But if a person needs money, go work. Earn it.

I know, i used to work temp like 4 different jobs in temp agencies. and Yes, even fastfood places are tough to land a position in. Maybe where you all are from it is different. I am just speaking from experience living here.

Well....when the economy sucks in one place here......people tend to move to where the jobs are. Where is that in the usa right now?
