My next employer?

So my friend showed me this job posting by http://www.kpopstarz.com/ which basically entails translating Korean pop articles into English. It pays for each article you translate which you do on your own time. Should I do it? I probably have to brush up on my Korean language skills right now... I'm so rusty. Plus I'd have to learn all the hip, trendy slang.

Words of Wisdom from Jason Mraz

"I know our current generation is up to big things. Random acts of kindness, the starting of non-profits, and general support of charities is IN. Materialism is Out. This strangely aligns with what the Mayans predicted 2012 would be about. The world won’t end. But the world as we know it will. So, a new world is being re-invented everyday and it is through our consciousness and our conscious and careful actions that we are reshaping our reality."

A lot of what he says rings true universally. Without lies our everyday lives would be completely different.
On a related note, for a wacky and humorous take on what life without lies would look like, check out the movie The Invention of Lying.
