Of course the first thing would be some of those chores that I just don't like to do. I've always found it interesting when I have had a job which required washing or cleaning, it was no big deal, just part of the job, but sometimes when I have to do these jobs at home, I hate them. But what if the powers that be could give me a check for washing the dishes - maybe even just pay by the load. I truly believe I would be washing dishes all the time.
But then I think about the things that I would like to do but just don't seem to find the time to do. What if I could get paid to read. That, I think, would be the definition of heaven. I truly believe that I would be in paradise and that my TV would become totally obsolete.
There is I downside I think though. What if it became like work - something you enjoy all the time but begin to resent regardless of monetary reimbursement. But even then, you really wouldn't have to do it because it wouldn't be a job.
Obviously it wouldn't happen, but still it is fun to wonder - what would you do more often if you could get money for what you did?

Interesting. I think there are some things I would do more often if the price was right (dishes, to use your example, would cost you quite a bit to get me to do them more often), but other things I would do more often almost regardless of how little I was being paid for them (reading, to use your other example).
