How Much Is Your Kid Worth?

Ever wonder what the going rate for your daughter would be if you woke up one day and wanted to sell her. Well Marcelino de Jesus Martinez did.

The agreement apparently included a payment of $16,000, 150 cases of beer,
50 cases of Gatorade, a sports drink, 100 cases of soda, six cases of meat and
two cases of wine in exchange for marriage to Martinez’s daughter.

That sets the going rate right there for rural California. How pissed are you if you live in that neighborhood and know your kid is only worth $16,000 and 150 cases of beer. I mean up until this story Im sure you thought your kid was worth an easy 6 figures

The most amazing think about this story is that person who agreed to buy his daughter is 18! How many hours did this kid have to sit in front of a liquor store playing hey buddy to get 150 cases of beer? And lets not even start with where he could get 16 grand. I was going through couch cushions and washer machines for spare change when I was 18. This kid is buying a human being. And for that, he was arrested as well.
