Are you under 50 years old, willing to make daily trips to Medford, and have regular bowel movements? You, my friend, could be earning $40 a day—just for pooping.

All you have to do is visit OpenBiome, launched in 2012 as the only independent nonprofit stool bank in the country. The brainchild of MIT postdoctoral associate Mark Smith, OpenBiome collects, tests, and provides fecal samples to 122 hospitals in 33 states for one of the most interesting medical treatment innovations today: fecal microbiota transplantation.


Mark Smith packages the samples for shipment on dry ice with a colleague Laura Burns.

There really is a job for everyone, and unlike the semen donations they don't care what your IQ is.

The job title on his resume:
Sh!t-packer.

Someone might mistake what he does and hire him for the wrong reason.

I could get rich if it was by the pound.
