Battery degradation depends on many factors, but high currents, excess heat and full charge/depletion are the biggest culprits; if avoided in the V2G scenario there's little to worry about.

Nobody has to love the power company, but making money off them should appeal.
Tesla wants you to buy their PowerWalls and use that for this purpose. It is pricey, but it makes money even when you're away.
