Boy Sells Kidney to Buy iPad
The Shanghai Daily is carrying a story today about a local boy who’s now regretting some unnecessary surgery.
The 17-year-old student, referred to only as Zheng, sold one of his kidneys for 20 thousand yuan (~$3085 USD) so he could buy an iPad 2. “I wanted to buy an iPad 2 but could not afford it,” said the boy. “A broker contacted me on the Internet and said he could help me sell one kidney for 20,000 yuan.”
