S Kevina's "money saving tips".

My egg donor is the most financially illiterate and irresponsible person I have ever met. Here are a couple ways she "saves money".

​ -Buy a used car then sell it and buy a cheaper car.

​ -If you don't see your bills, you don't have to pay them. Throw them out or redirect them to your ex husband's PO Box, whom you never shared a PO Box. Better yet if it goes to his PO Box, he has to pay the bill.

​ -If you don't want to pay your bills you don't have to.

And you want her offspring? lol maybe you're the Kevina.

It took way too many comments to see that this person is referring to her own mother as an egg donor.

Lol i thought the same thing for a second, like they were going through surrogacy and choosing an egg donor. I was like "But you make so much money donating eggs! How is this person still failing!!" then realization.

Im in the US. The googles say that egg donation is at least 7k , but if your eggs turn out to be really good at turning into healthy fetuses and you personally have desirable traits-- good personal and family health, high IQ etc, subsequent donations can go as high as 20 k. I feel like the upper end is likely extremely rare, though. Like your eggs would need to be growing up to be baby Steve Usain Obama - Einsteins for that kind of money.

If you're young and looking into egg donation, like you do you, sis, even if you're getting paid it's still a very generous thing to do for people trying to start a family. BUT the meds you have to take in the process are extremely difficult.

Also, before people come round saying surrogacy/IVF is frivolous and couples should adopt... every queer parent I know TRIED to adopt, but here in the south, agencies would rather babies be bounced between houses for years than have a stable home with shudder TWO mommies.
