Unlike Mousie, I donated my plasma purely for monetary gain. It was back in college, and I, of very little money, was able to pick up between eight and twenty bucks for each donation. I only did it through one summer, when money was extremely tight.

Another guy I knew went on a regular basis, all thoughout the school year. He wound up getting grounded when he went back home for the summer and his father found the needle marks on his arm.

Heh.
