I’ve been a blood donor for most of my adult life, and have donated about 30 liters. Where I’m at you get a token donation and a thanks for donating, but someone mentioned that in the US you get paid quite a lot depending on the quality and the blood type.

I have a fairly uncommon blood type (about 10% of the population) and a blood count of around 150.

So, how wealthy would I have been if I had donated my blood in the US instead?

    Check the answers. It is, indeed, “a lot” sometimes and it happens just to allow companies to have huge profits. To do so, they allow people to have a small profit and it means let some people die if they don’t have enough money to make riches richer. The USA is a country working upside down, bro.
