Guys around the country are resorting to extraordinary methods to make ends meet as gas costs and grocery bills reach new highs.
For some, this means putting all of their money into an NFT or meme stock. Others may have to sacrifice a testicle in order to achieve financial independence.
That is, at least, their plan. You may have heard about people making money by donating blood plasma, sperm, and even dung.
What about your balls, though? Given that you have an additional testicle and that living with one testicle appears to be manageable, it may appear to be a no-brainer.
Unfortunately, there are certain legal and ethical barriers standing in your way of getting paid for your nuts. Anyways, here is everything you need to know about testicle donations and how much do you get paid for selling a testicle today.

Can You Legally Sell Your Testicle(s)?

The National Organ Transplant Act of 1984 makes it illegal for citizens of the United States to buy or sell any human organ (that includes your nuts).
If you're still thinking of putting a "for sale" sign on one of your testicles, you should know that you might face a five-year prison sentence and a $50,000 fine - which is a lot more than the going amount for a testicle (more on that later).
Living persons can donate some body parts, like as kidneys, and may be reimbursed for their travel and medical expenses. However, testicle donation is not, by any stretch of the imagination, a road to wealth for law-abiding persons.
However, just because you can't legally sell one of your testicles doesn't mean your family heirlooms aren't valuable. Let's take a look at your nuts' sticker price.

The Value Of A Testicle

The underground market and workman's compensation lawyers are two sources for estimating the worth of a testicle. Let's begin with the criminal activities.
The black market for body parts is estimated to be worth more than a billion dollars every year.
On the illicit market, estimating the exact price of a human testicle is difficult (that is, without using a VPN).
However, an FBI raid in 2014 revealed how much "body brokers" were charging per body part.
A whole pelvis was valued at $1,750, according to a price chart collected by officials. We can assume that a single testicle would sell for a lot less based on that information. That's what you call a low-ball offer.
Now, if you've had the unfortunate misfortune of losing a testicle on the job, you could be in line for a large sum of money.
Workers' compensation awards for the loss of various bodily parts were reported by ProPublica in 2015.
The average payoff for one testicle in the United States is $27,678, with a maximum payout of $98,108. Minnesota is the state with the lowest payout for losing a testicle, at $3,750.
A word of advice: If you're pursuing a vocation that involves a high risk of testicular injuries, make sure you live in a state that offers significant payments.
In the instance of a 54-year-old Pennsylvania man whose urologist removed the wrong testicle during an operation in 2013, there's also the case of a 54-year-old Pennsylvania guy whose urologist removed the wrong testicle during an operation in 2013.
The doctor was deemed to be "recklessly insensitive" by the jury, and the victim was awarded $870,000 for pain and suffering.
The most well-known incidence of testicular trade occurred in November 2013, when Mark Parisi, a Las Vegas resident, attempted to sell his left testicle for $35,000.
Parisi, who appeared on TLC's Extreme Cheapskates, described his nut-for-cash arrangement as "exciting" and "anxious." He even went on CBS and said he was going to buy a new Nissan 370Z with the money.
A brief fact-check reveals, however, that the transaction was more difficult than originally imagined.
Rather of selling his testicles outright, Parisi consented to take part in a medical trial in which his testicle would be removed and replaced with a prosthetic (something guys with testicular cancer might consider if they have to get the organ surgically removed).
However, there is no indication that Parisi really completed the treatment and received payment.
That didn't stop Redditors from getting excited about the prospect of earning $35K for giving a nut.
Bottom line: depending on your circumstances, your testicle might be valued anywhere from a few hundred dollars to nearly a million dollars.

Are Testicles Ever Transplanted Between People?

Human-to-human testicular transplantation is relatively uncommon. A 36-year-old man without testicles underwent a testicle transplant from his identical brother in Serbia, according to a New York Times article published in 2019. It is, however, only the third known testicle transplant, and the first in almost 40 years.
In 1978, the first human testicle transplant was reportedTrusted Source. A testicle from a male twin who had complete testicular function was transplanted into his identical twin sibling who had none.
Both the donor and the recipient's testosterone levels were normal within 2 hours of surgery. The recipient's sperm count and motility returned to normal.

The Benefits Of Organ Donation

Donating a testicle or another organ is mostly a selfless gesture. A donation, by definition, means that you are not compensated financially.
Donating a testicle has no recognized health benefits for the donor. In principle, it could help someone who is getting a testicle transplant.
The testicles have two main functions: they create the majority of the testosterone in the body and they produce sperm.
As in the case of the 1978 transplant, receiving a functional testicle could stabilize the body's testosterone levels without the need for hormone replacement treatment. It may also assist the receiver in fathering a kid, however only with the donor's DNA.
A testicular transplant might possibly boost the recipient's self-esteem and body satisfaction.
People who receive a prosthetic testicle after a testicle is surgically removed, on the other hand, report high levels of pleasure.
In theory, giving a testicle could help progress medical research, but testicle donations are extremely uncommon.
The canceled study that Mark Parisi was supposed to participate in, in which experts were examining how the body would react to a prosthetic, is a rare example.
However, that investigation involved the removal of a testicle rather than its transplantation.
If you have testicular cancer and researchers want to examine the cancer cells, another uncommon case when a testicle can be needed is if you have testicular cancer.
Researchers would only take a little amount of tissue from the damaged testicle in these circumstances. Transplantation of the testicle into another person would never be contemplated.

It only took me about five minutes of internet digging to figure out that this is in relation to a Mark Parisi newsreport.

We understand that times are difficult. Selling one of your testicles, on the other hand, isn't a feasible side venture, and it's also prohibited.
Even though it appears to be "simple" in principle, you must factor in the inconvenience of surgery, rehabilitation, and the almost-certainly embarrassing dialogue with your spouse about the situation down there.
To obtain your bag, you don't have to bother with it. You can always drive for Uber, deliver for Postmates, or, if you're feeling brave, sell your farts as NFTs as Stephanie Matto did.
