If You are Looking for a Lucrative Summer Job...

...try scavaging for whale vomit, which apparently can net you $20,000 per kilogram due to its use in perfumes.

Haha, this is awesome. And another great reason to save the whales. (yes Devin I am a big treehugger). Anyway, I wonder whether aquariums collect the whale vommit for this purpose. I hope they don't give them stuff to just to make them vommit. I was wondering how Seaworld got its funding...

$20,000 is not a bad pay check. but my question is hoe exactly does one go about finding whale vomit. it doesn't sould like an easy task. although the pay is high finding whale vomit sounds difficult and not very fun. It is unliekly i would manage to find any whale vomit in which case i would get no money. i think i would pass on that job.
