still 7 days too many for me.
and the 28 days will be resticted diet. fuck that and the horse it rode in on.

Good luck. Someone has to do these things. I hope the side effects aren't too shitty.

I think cheif among the side effects is
OMG I LOST ALL MY DIGNITY BY TELLING PEOPLE ONLINE I WAS SO DESPERATE FOR A PALTRY £2K I'D RISK MY HEALTH AND SANITY.

£2k is paltry?

In the big scheme of things it is
What exactly can you do with it ? Nothing life changing.

You could earn that working in McDonalds for 2 months and as it is he has his life fucked about for a month in any case.

If I owed "Harry the murdering bastard" £2k I can see that £2k would be important but it's not exactly a kings ransom.

pay off debts
go on holiday
not always be in overdraft
buy something you've always wanted.

I think the point is that it's potentially money for nothing. Like TMB says, he could get a low dose, or a placebo.

well, it's not money for nothing
it's (usually) at least 2 weeks of your life. So if you live in the real job world, you can do it, but there goes most of your holiday. I realise it's not the same for everyone, but my holiday is worth about £500 a day to me since that's what I charge to consult in my free time, so it's effectively losing money in my case.

£2k's not exactly paltry

( spangolin - the odds are good but the goods are odd, Mon 8 Jun 2009, 16:51, archived)

potentially for your life and the risk of serious long-term damage to your health?
are you sure?

put it this way. If I take you up in a plane and say "here are 100 parachutes. 1 of them has the cords cut. I'll pay you 2K to choose one and jump" ... what are you going to do? Do you want 2K that much?
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Mon 8 Jun 2009, 16:54, archived)

not personally
I'm just saying, that as a statement on it's own, £2k's not paltry.

As you're a medical-doctor-scientist type guy, I'll take your word for how risky it can be though.
( spangolin - the odds are good but the goods are odd, Mon 8 Jun 2009, 17:00, archived)

I WOULD.

you rich cunt

(PsychoChomp, Mon 8 Jun 2009, 16:54, archived)

Meh
£2k for a month out of your life only equates to £24k a year.

That's fuck all really.
( Goatworrier had your mum and she was shit, Mon 8 Jun 2009, 16:55, archived)

It's more than I can imagine.
Well I've earnt £2k in a month before, but I'd be well chuffed if I could make that a permanent arrangement.
