Default How much money would you take to spend a year in a monastery?

Inspired by the thread about going to prison for a year. People there wanted between $50k and 20 million.

Any religion you like, but you must live a very simple lifestyle. You can't leave the grounds of the monastery. You might have the occasional interaction with people from the outside world, but you're not going to see your family regularly. No sex. No TV, no internet. A lot of time spent praying/meditating, and working. No strings attached once you leave, but you absolutely cannot leave once your year starts. You'll probably come out of it a better person, but you might find it pretty boring.

How much would someone need to offer you to do this? Would any OOTers pay for this experience?
