Odd Poll: Could you pull out your own fingernail for $2500?

You have to get the nail completely off, by whatever method you want. Only one nail, and you get $2500. Would you want and/or be able to do it?

I was having a discussion about this with my friend...

We were working on my car this weekend, and he smashed his finger between a breaker bar and an AC bracket. now it's turning black under his nail.... I asked if he thought it was going to come off, he said that if he'd get my supercharger out of sympathy if it came off, then it was probably going to fall off.
 
would you be allowed to to use anything to numb the pain beforehand?

edit: actually, i'm not that hard up for money right now, that i'd do it. considering risk or infection and the pain. maybe for $10,000.

all it really takes is for it to become bruised and it'll fall off
lets say someone steps on your finger by mistake and crushes your nails and it gets bruised... given about 2-3 weeks it should fall off with new one growing in it's place right under it.
 
a board fell on my foot and took off half of my big toenail, it really wasen't all that painful, but the bleeding was ridiculous. On your hand it would be worse, but for not too bad for $2500, that's equivalent to a few weeks work, and if its not taxable income, then even more, heh.
 
hell yeah i could. i have a super high pain tolerance and abilty to deal it to myself. it'd be tough coming up with a method tho
 
A toenail of mine fell off weeks ago due to somebody stepping on it playing basketball. Does that count? If so, where's my $2500.
