could you die from it?
Or have permanent damage? I mean, there was that case in the news a while back but other than that people seem to get away scot free.

I'm considering it, see.

This is why they pay you
If they were certain it worked, they'd be charging people.

there's a difference between "feeling a bit ill" tohugh and "losing liver function".

they've tested it on animals first, at least.
That last "incident" is fairly uncommon, and from what I gather, caused by a mistake of some sort.

they will have done animal tox models.
so you shouldn't die. But you'll certainly risk get some fucking unpleasant side effects, because that's the point of tox tests. They'll be running at 100x or 1000x dose for the high end, to see the effects of overdose. No-one is going to give you 2K to sit pleasantly and eat rich tea, it'll hurt. unless you're lucky and get low-dose or placebo.

but, yeah, by taking the money you're signing away your life and right to sue, effectively. You die, hard luck. It is possible. not likely, but possible.

See this is why £2k is paltry
If it were £200k, I'd do it and pay my mortgage off.

If it were £20k I might do it and use it as a deposit to buy another house, but £2k ? OMG LOOK I BOUGHT A 2002 HONDA ACCORD !!!!

No thanks....

Actually I don't think even I'd do that for £2k,
and I could really use £2k.
