Abstract
How much is a year of your life worth? How much would you sell a year at the end of your life for? In this work of philosophical short story fiction, Martha finds herself in need of money. She heard from a friend that LifeCorp will pay $500,000 for a year of the end of your life. She heads in, fills out the forms, and finds out, because of her drinking, smoking, and rudderless lifestyle, her life is only worth $20,000 per year. She sells 18 years of her life, pays off her parent’s medical debt, and goes to get drunk. A few months later, she finds out she is pregnant with Benito’s child. It’s a casual relationship, but he agrees they should both go in to sell a year of their life to help support their new child. Benito’s sale is successful, however, when they run tests on Martha, they determine she doesn’t have a year left to sell.
