Hi,
I need an expensive surgery soon. Now I have the option of 'living life on the edge' and to go for a doctor who only did this surgery once before and isn't confident about doing it either (but having it covered by insurance this way), or to go for a very experienced surgeon and pay for it myself. But then I still lack 30 000$.
I sometimes am a risk taker, but let's say I'd rather go for option number two.

So I need a masterplan!
Now, how would you collect the money? All crazy/silly/insane/good/bad ideas are welcome. My motto is, the more inspiration the better.
