Who cares. For $5million I'd have his baby. Is the offer still open?

I'll check.

Is it all cash?

Ah, good question. I think most of it is in bitcoins. g

I thought the going price for a surrogate, the amount that goes to the
woman, was up to 50,000 dollars (plus medical expenses, of course.) and
that can really help someone through 2 or 3 years, but 5 million should
last a lifetime.

"He offered her $5 million if she would conceive a child, thats what
she told,", so maybe he suggested she be the mother, maybe she was
good-looking, or tall, of something he liked. But I'm sure that could
be negotiated and he'd go get a donor egg. IIUC, those aren't hard to
find.***

Still, I can see turning it down, but I can't see complaining about it.
She was lucky he asked her. He could have asked everyone else first.

I guess the real question is how it is to be done. Laboratory type
implanting of a fertilized egg? Or, very likely, lets screw until I get
you knocked up. We can **** every day until it happens.



One fertility clinic that does everything says "Our current cost for a
complete egg donation cycle is $26,000. This includes the donor's fee of
$7,000 and $400 for short term medical insurance for the donor. The cost
of donor egg IVF varies greatly at different IVF centers. Some clinics
charge over $30,000 without medications for a single donor cycle."

$7000, 26,000, a drop in the bucket compared to 5 mil.


We can skip all of that and DIY the old way.
