-- Posted by medjai at 9:51 am on Oct. 23, 2008 Clinical research studies. You don't need any experience you just take pills and then get blood drawn for a few weeks and the next thing you know you have an eight thousand dollar check -- Posted by lucyloo at 9:52 am on Oct. 23, 2008 And AIDS. -- Posted by Fentastic at 9:52 am on Oct. 23, 2008 And this whole time I've been donating plasma and sperm for $40 buck a pop? Shit. -- Posted by Lala ninja at 9:52 am on Oct. 23, 2008 :O -- Posted by switchfoot52 at 9:53 am on Oct. 23, 2008 but i already get blood test and take pills. i don't get any money -- Posted by shadowpool at 9:53 am on Oct. 23, 2008 Your family could use the check to buy you a coffin! -- Posted by Innuendo Girl at 9:53 am on Oct. 23, 2008 Easy! Is this something you've done? -- Posted by medjai at 10:27 am on Oct. 23, 2008 A friend of minke did this in Texas for a year and a half he never made less than four grand on a given month. I'm doing one now that's just weekends and I'll net 4.8k from it -- Posted by medjai at 10:29 am on Oct. 23, 2008 Quote: from Fentastic at 9:52 am on Oct. 23, 2008 And this whole time I've been donating plasma and sperm for $40 buck a pop? Shit. The trick is juggling the different companies in your area, if I did a second stidy i'd net eight grand this month but it gets difficult keeping your schedule open enough. -- Posted by The Samsoniteman at 10:59 am on Oct. 23, 2008 How does it work, are your details put on some sort of register which is made available to researchers or do you actively find your own researchers and present yourself to them for the taking? -- Posted by medjai at 11:56 am on Oct. 23, 2008 The latter. -- Posted by barnabas at 11:59 am on Oct. 23, 2008 How do you find them? -- Posted by The Samsoniteman at 12:04 pm on Oct. 23, 2008 From a clinical point of view that's quite worrying, then. It could be problematic ensuring you get good enough stratification in your sampling. God knows researchers are stupid and lazy enough as it is. -- Posted by Narfled the Garthok at 12:07 pm on Oct. 23, 2008 Remember medjai, In reality, there is no such thing as easy money. -- Posted by medjai at 12:38 pm on Oct. 23, 2008 Money has always been extraordinarily easy for me to obtain so I'm not sure what you mean there Narfle. Well Samsonite, they're actually rather thorough as hell, for instance for whatever reason I suck at doing EKGs and the machine can get every reading except my Pulminary Rhythm, and so I'm sitting here waiting to go to the fucking machine again (I've done this several times each one failing to get my heart's rhythm), and theoretically, if they're absolutely unable to get it, I'll be removed from the study. When you go to the individual company though, they keep records as they obtain them from you, so all the info I've gave them, this company will keep for like 20 years, etc. -- Posted by medjai at 12:39 pm on Oct. 23, 2008 Oh, and to find them, I use this handy dandy website.
