Comment on “The Price of Doing Business”

Things I'd pay money for:
History lectures or essays (like the post on the Don Cossacks)
Private consultation regarding my own personal game world. We all love that you give advice away for free and that a lot of it applies regardless of what our own world looks like, but how much cooler would it be to get direct Alexis access regarding one's desired level of world building and entity placement? You could charge a pretty penny per-hour (I won't suggest a figure), or maybe have some kind of rate per-question. Additional costs if a client wants your help building out a set of rules or a table or what have you. (I suppose one bit to consider here is that if someone wants help that would also be good as a blog entry they might feel cheated if you wrote something up for them, then turned around and blogged it shortly after. So the consulting angle might be more fruitful)
This one might be a bit farfetched: tuning in to a viewer's game live via webcam or watching a video they record and post for you (the latter seems much more practical), then giving commentary on what aspects of their DMing needs improvement or attention -- player management, presentation, tension, etc.
