Frate_Raper Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 I heard this radio commercial looking for people to do clinical research for prescription meds, it was all cool and flashy and was like "YOU COULD EARN UP TO 900 DOLLARS". Who does this shit? have any of you done it? Seems like the worst way to get some money! talk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViolentByDesign Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 I would do it if I got like bags of painkillers for free. Then again I don't want to be one of the people they use to find out their medicine causes internal bleeding and leakage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Module X Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 My roommate did this all the time. Once they put yellow dye on his eyeballs and it turned his eyeballs yellow and a centimeter radius around his eyelids orange for a few hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

first_down Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 There was a story over here last year where one of these trials went wrong. One kid lost all his fingers and toes and I think someone died. Statisticly that very unlikely though. *edit http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/4808836.stm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r3ader Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 I got a buddy who consumes spray paint to make sure it's not lethal. and gets paid for it, o' course. no joke. i asked him to tell me which paint brand was the safest to use and he said "the blue is better than the green!" i have no idea what that means.

Ski Mask Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 theres a place here that does consumer product research. its not medicinal, but its close. They get you to test skin creams, suntan lotion, that sort of stuff. couple hundred bucks for an hour a week over 4 weeks. The only downside is most places are really selective about who they need. I dont know if I would fuck with testing meds or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greensleeves Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 you might end up making some kinda firestarter kids in the future, overall that would be pretty cool though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who does this shit? have any of you done it? Seems like the worst way to get some money! talk I was gonna "work" for Biovale once, when i really needed the money, but I am a smoker, and they weren't looking for smokers at the time. But thank god I got past that difficult stage in my life and hopefully I will never consider it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mauler5150 Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 Well there you go. Sin City was sick, as was OUATIM. I'd do it, if only for the easy money. And to Caligula, I have only been in 1 porn that I would have gotten paid for, but since I broke it off with the girl, I refused to sign the release, haha!! (At least I ended up with the pics though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Removed Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 My flatmate did it for a while. You can make good money, but he kept on getting caught out for having weed in his system. I considered it when I was living in London, but in the end decided the fact that I couldn't leave at night negated any extra money I might make instead of a normal job.
