The Body Market

How many years do you sell?

The Body Market

You can sell one year of your healthy lifespan to a billionaire for half a million dollars, tax-free. They live a year longer; you die a year earlier than you would have. You can do this as many times as you want.

How many years do you sell?

Then ask

  • What would you buy with the first check?
  • If you knew you were going to die at sixty, would you ask for the years back?

The classics and some new ones. A scenario, the question it forces, and the follow-ups that make it bite.
