I got paid for some large-scale chores, like mowing the lawns of our upper-middle-class suburban property. Took 3+ hours.
After the divorce (and smaller houses) my mom would pay me more than minimum wage to help her out, because she loved me and wanted to make sure I could buy groceries. My dad would pay me less than minimum wage to help him out with his actual side-businesses, because I was the cheapest labour he could find that wasn't himself, and every dollar in my pocket was one less in his.
