I would clone myself and make my clone do all of the things I hate doing such as going to work, chores, etc.

And assume that they would be somewhat similar when cloned?
Probably Socrates. Or Eckhart, a german mysticist. Beethoven. Goethe.
So many to choose from.

And what if the clone(s) took over. You would be slaving for multiple "yous" :?

Thanks, Vautrin, for taking the fun out of my one moment of happiness!...I'm just kidding...maybe I should research how much power clones actually have...

I would clone Brad Pitt. I'd keep him in a closet during the day and "use" his skills during the night  !

I would definitely clone myself, I could keep several of me busy.
Did you ever watch the movie multiplicity? I would definitely have to let my spouse know to watch out for the clones, we would have to have some secret code. If she did get experimental with the clones, would she be cheating?
