Would you blog if you got paid?

If you're a physician and you've been thinking about blogging, consider this question: "Would you blog if you got paid?"

• What if someone was willing to pay you to write a blog? Would you do it?
• How much would you need to make for blogging to be worth your time?

I blog for many reasons. Although financial remuneration has played a larger role in 2009, I used to blog for free. In fact, I spent several years blogging with no ads on my sites. I was blogging because it was my passion. Now, I still blog because it's my passion, but it's nice to get some supplemental income so that I can do some fun things and buy gifts for my family.
