    1500 for 2 weekend stays....that you probably check in 2-3 on friday and 8 on sunday cuz thats what they usually do...

    so ur there a total of about 90 hours with return draws and such......so i guess ur making over 10 prolly more like 15 or a little more....

    84 hours total + 12 return draws (assume half hour a piece with driving time). 16.66/hour Not to shabby for an easy payment on student loans. Plus free food and I wont be spending money on the weekends. So not really 25 an hour....but still worth it.

      If i remember right if you only do one study you don't have to pay any taxes. Ive thought of doing one but the needles scare me. I don't mind them so much but don't think i could handle getting poked 50 times in one weekend.

        yeah saving money in one weekend is the big thing...isnt hard to spend $100-$200 in a bar in one weekend....or whatever else you could do in a weekend.

          I did one a long while back. It was long and drawn out, but I got 4 g's for doing it.

          Had to go back every morning for like a month or so for blood samples, and was stuck there 3 or 4 times for a few nights each. Not bad money for sitting on your ass doing absolutly nothing. But yes, the tiny little meals to suck balls.

            With medical studies this year I have made 9 grand and am starting another big study on the 29th for 4 grand... not bad for just sitting around doing nothing... 13 g's within 4 months... and yes the taxes kinda kill you but you can write some stuff off as business expense since you are self employeed like gas and food... so when i did my study in the cities i can write off my 5000 miles worth of gas on taxes 🙂 and all my food...

                  from what i hear the viagra studies are kinda akward since you have to sit in a room full of guys with boners for like 4 hours... and they usually have the next room full of girls with the female equivalent of viagra...

                      do you only have to be 18 to do these studies?

                            Best one I ever did was a sleeping pill study. Only was awake to eat, go to the bathroom, and about 2 hours on the second day to watch a movie. When I got out on monday morning I felt like a million bucks.

                            Worst one I had was one that we took something that messed with our immunity a bit. Damn zit on my face turned into a fuggin' basketball and I had to get some antibiotics.

                            Pretty easy stuff though for the money if you got the time. And you're a cheap drunk afterwards.

                            One time...

                                  I've done them in the past 16days for 5500... This is the shortest duration with the highest pay out I've seen.

                                        If you do enough studies to be a regular, or know someone higher up in the pracs world you can get into some pretty big payouts. I spent the first month of summer after graduating highschool in pracs. 32 days with "outside" time for 12k.
                                        That money made my next two years awesome.
