I was talking to a friend about this who never heard of synesthesia, and though I was messing with him. I challenged him to write 50 random words on a piece of paper to which I would add colors. He took the paper, and a month or so later he read each word, to which I was able to flawlessly respond with the corresponding color. He did my chores for that week (we were roommates at that time).
That’s basically the only time it somewhat benifitted me. The rest of the time it’s people asking what color their names are whenever the topic comes up :)
