$12-15K for one round of IVF and get to be pregnant
$700 for one round of donor insemination and get to be pregnant
For us it was a no brainer and I respect my husban immensely for being able to put his ego aside. He'd die for our son and they don't share a strand of DNA, but he got to see the miracle of my belly swell and watch him being born.
If you had ask me or my husband before we tried to get pregnant how far we'd go, I would have said maybe some Clomid and my husband would have told you that there's no way in hell he'd let me be pregnant with someone elses DNA. It's amazing how your perspective changes when faced with certain obstacles.

Hey you asked the question so I gave my opinion. If you don't like the answer don't ask the question.
