Where are ya'll going to donate blood where compensation is legal? Most places have banned that practice.
Donating blood is uncompensated to my knowledge, but donating plasma is definitely compensated, but very low. My wife was just complaining that the local donation center only offers $90/week, and that's with 2 donations. It's like 35 or something for one session, and a total scam for those who are desperate for money.
I make $110 for two donations and I don't feel like I'm getting scammed. But I'm also not desperate for money.
My wife was getting that or a bit more for a while, but they constantly change what the weekly payout is around us.
I go to CSL plasma. $110 dollars a week for two donations.

Yeah where I'm from you can't donate blood, plasma, platelets, your eggs or sperm, or be a surrogate in exchange for money. That was working okay for a while but after the pandemic hit they've become desperate for donors.
