Well most of people dont need 2nd kidney, at least in wealthy countries (good hospitals, fresh water, healthy food etc..).
There are however some people that need that 2nd kidney but they are not in majority.

I would sell my kidney, but i would accept 20000$ not less or i would not sell it , there is no diabetes or anything like that been in my family.

Are we sure BBC isn't getting trolled here? This sounds silly.

Then if you ever bruise your only remaining kidney in an accident you'll be wishing you could exchange that $20,000 for a kidney that doesn't require immune-suppression drugs. Keep your kidney regardless of the price.

If i happen to get accident, and if i loose hand or leg, paralyze below waist or something similar, i will kill my self soon as i get out of hospital, so i think kidney wont matter a chicken poo,
and dont think i would not go for it, i will since i have allready tried suecide (got unlucky) but result was 5months in hospital and after that rehabitation and full recovery, my life were bullcrap before that hospital perioid.

According to your signature, $20,000 shouldn't be considered any significant to you... Don't you need your 2nd kidney to keep your girlfriend/wife happy? Or you are really strong and confident about it

For some reason I can only see eric cartman doing something like this.

"Seriously, you guys..."
I can see it now

you are wrong, second kidney is not a spare one. both of them are needed.

Yeah it isnt significant, but if i would loose everything i own, then i would sell my kidney minium that price

It can be needed but im not doctor so i cannot 100% positively tell is 2nd kidney needed or not.

Well, American youth can't be considered the most screwed up now. How can a human being, even a youth, not value their body to the point where they would think twice about selling a kidney for anything? Between Foxconn workers flinging themselves off rooftops hoping for an insurance payout to their families and this poor kid, I just don't know what to think about China anymore.

Very few people have any clue at all how horrible things are in that country. You have no idea.... think about how bad you think it is now, and multiply that by a million. That is China.

New meaning to the slogan...

[Nikolasz]

Well im not selling any organs for no matter what $$. Maybe left broken testical, wich i dont need it

[nn_step]

New meaning to the slogan...

Yes, Sell your organs to the shady guy that might take all of them while you are sedated. That is clearly something Apple Fanboys think is a completely reasonable thing to do.

[zalbard]

He can give his brain cells for scientific research, he's not using them obviously

[vohu manah]

Eric Cartman always get the newest hardware from his mom.... she sleeps with everyone till she gets a discount .....now Kenny, he's from a poor family, lol



Way to go Apple's marketing department ^^

[Hoboclese]

There are only two things i can think of that i would be willing to part with for money.... my appendix and tonsils. Anyone wanna trade me a BD for them when they come out? :P

[Metroid]

I would understand if he had sold his kidney to cure something else with the money. I'm very certain that this is not uncommon in China, probably one of his friends did the same thing and yes this is a mental spreading illness, sad but it was his choice and his future looks bleak.

[Splave]

Wonder what he's gonna do when the iPad3 comes out next WEEK.................

fixed

[Reflex1]

lol idiot

out of curiosity, anyone know what a kidney is worth?

[Judaeus Apella]

From what I remember hearing, well into the XX,XXX digits for smaller organs, XXX,XXX for larger and more important organs like a heart. Can't be 100% on that though. So yeah, the kid definitely got ripped off. I've also heard organizations like the Yakuza will just dissect you and sell off every part of you, if you owe them enough money. Why bother beating it out of you when they can make a cool mil off your guts? Scary...
