Even doing these studies I take much less medication than the average person. I'm not any prescriptions and rarely take any other medication. I might take a Tylenol or allergy medicine, or whatever once every couple of months. Compare that to many people my age who are on a couple prescriptions and take a Tylenol or something every day. I think the medical studies put me at less risk of side effects than many people's normal medicine-taking behavior puts them. The recent FDA warning about people overdosing on acetaminophen is an example of this. MoneyEnergy – The possibility of side effects is a concern but not too big of one.

I know these are the professionals, etc. etc. but it could still cause undue wear and stress on your system, including unintended side effects. But congrats for making decent income - you're no longer at at full-time job if I recall, right? I’d be careful with doing many medical studies.

Most of my stocks pay less than than but I'm overly weighted in a few high-yielding dividend stocks. Realty Income (O) is the most notable one.

That isn't what I plan to do but it is always available as a backup plan.

Anyway, even w/o the study, you made about $800 in alternative income, which is not bad. Is it reasonable to assume that you could do a medical study of such proportions once a month?

If you dont mind me asking what sort of return are you making on your dividends percentage wise? Its been a good month for you.
