"It would be useful to keep a diary, but I don't like writing unpaid. I don't like writing checks without getting paid."

— Christopher Hitchens, 2010

I understand the rationale behind asking what you've built without being paid, but if you're hoping, by that question, to identify people who are really smart ... then isn't it really smart to figure out how to get paid for your work, rather than doing it unpaid?
