I am from Canada where they do not pay for sperm donation.
Way back in university, 40 years ago, my friend said he wanted to go to Boston for a long weekend.
Obviously, I was up for the road trip.
We get there, we stayed in a youth hostel, and I fucked 2 girls from the hostel that night.
The next morning I ask my friend what he wanted to do and he said he wanted to go to a sperm bank to make a donation. The way it worked back then is that you gave them a sample and your information and they would give you an offer for future sperm donations.
It was all based on your background information and the results of your sperm sample.
We jerked off into the specimen cups and put them on a shelf to get tested.
Naturally, we checked out each other's cups as we put them on the shelf. My friend freaked out when he saw my sample. He was bitching that he had not cum in 5 days and my sample was much bigger than his and that I had cum multiple times last night with the girls.
We got our offer letters after the samples were processed. He read me his offer and said they were offering him eighty something dollars. I opened mine and saw they were willing to pay me two and twenty something dollars.
He asked me about my offer and I felt bad for him and said they offered me only fifty dollars as I did not want to crush his ego. Seemed like he really needed to win this test.
