… but it isn’t lunatic, it’s lovely.
In the stressful moments, don’t we all dream of how to make a living by not doing much? This might just be the opportunity that we have all been waiting for.
Well, you can earn money by becoming a poo donor.
It turns out there is a not-for-profit stool bank. They pay you for poo. $40 a go with a bonus offer of $50 more for those who can deliver five times per week.
That’s potentially $250 per week, or $13,000 for stuff that you were doing anyway.
Healthy poo is collected because of a horrible bacterium called C. Diff which infects the bowels and can lead to a whole heap of very unpleasant and possibly life threatening illnesses. So they take a nice, healthy poo and put it into the guts of a patient who is suffering from bad colon bacteria. The healthy poo wipes out all of the dangerous microorganisms and gives the patient a healthy digestive system. And, it works. Eighty-five percent of patients are completely rid of C. Diff after their first go.
This means that being a poo donor is potentially helping to save somebody’s life.
There are conditions to becoming a poo donor:
- You’ve got to live near Boston.
- Your poo has to pass a test.
- If your poo is deemed healthy, you can donate for 60 days before having another health check.
Anyone fancy a 60 day holiday to Boston?

This article has given me a sense of marvel. I’m marvelling at how wonderful we are as humans to keep striving to find ways to serve and help life.
