no, you could not buy another kidney or some augmented piece with the same functions. You have one kidney and if it fails, dialisis. $2 billion would afford you many non-alcoholic pleasures though.

With $2 billion dollars I'm pretty sure that I could find a way to acquire another kidney...legal or not. Maybe I couldn't BUY a new one, but I'm damn sure that there would be SOME way that I could get one.

Hell, with $2 billion you could probably start your own chain of black market organ stores, 7-Eleven style.

I wouldn't..... a nephrectomy is no joke....Besides leaving you with one kidney, it's a higher risk for end stage renal failure.

TC said you can't buy another or get something that serves the same function. But yeah, I'd do it. I only really need one anyway.

I thought the kidneys played a part too?

Hell, the only times I learned about the anatomy in the military was during self-aid and buddy care and knife-fighting.

No, though honestly, there's few things I'd do for any amount of money.

No, it's a piece of me and I would miss it terribly. Besides, I wouldn't want to decrease my lifespan for something as shallow as munies. On the other hand, I would sell 60% of my liver for half that price, the liver regenerates you see.

No thanks. I'd like to keep my organs where they are. Besides, buying a house and a new car, I don't know what else I'd do with the money. Guess I could buy a bunch of DS games.

Without a doubt. This will make things pretty compeititive with my mom, though (who will probably need a kidney some time in the next ten years), but it's 2 billion; I think she'd understand.

This is why I can't wait for Obama's health plan to go through. The only way for private practices to stay open will be to start showing off their benifits, and that's with a freezer full of kidneys. Kidneys bought from Jo-public, people such as me 8)

Yes. And if I lost my other Kidney I'd give the money to organizations and people I care about - the world would be a better place for it. So win-win :D

Yes. You only need one anyways. And if that one fails, then I'll just get a transplant. Which wouldn't be hard since i have 2,000,000,000 dollars.

Definitely. Even if my remaining kidney did fail, I bet you could buy a hell of a dialysis machine for ~$1 billion.

Just so you guys know, it's not like you can just get another kidney, kidneys are one of the most picky organs, you really need to find a very, very similar one to yours, and that's not very easy to find, also if you find a similar one, your body may just reject it, it's not magic guys. Also, living with one kidney is not easy either, say goodbye to alcohol, coffee, soda, and all that kind of things.
