Free money!!!

And actually, you bring up a good point. A couple times while on cycle, my hematocrit was almost too high to donate.
My hematocrit didn't increase very much while on my current cycle but still within normal range so I may donate whole blood and plasma soon. There's always a blood drive at the hospital I work at so this should be easy peasy.

A couple times, I was .1% away from being disqualified. Plus, it made my donating time longer. Off cycle, I'm done in 43 minutes. On cycle was closer to 1.5 hours.

Mine right now is at nearly 46 which is close but still got some wiggle room.
 
And then health insurance companies will NOT reimburse a hospital that charges for blood, based on the assumption that it is free to the hospital.

And since my blood type isn't rare, I don't donate blood. I do however "donate" my plasma which brings in $400 extra per month, tax free. Great gear or vacation money.
Damn. Donating plasma I heard uses like an 18g needle. Ouchy.
