I watched him when I was at work tonight, he is very quick on the fast money. That chick only won because she got $25 through the who am I questions I reckon. Does he beat you at Trivial Pursuit?

I don't even try to take him on with Trivial Pursuit!!!!
Yeh, he's a bit sorry he bought that holiday..cost him the game in the end. If you think about the $15 he spent on the vault and the $25 she picked up...thats a $40 difference. But he did well, and had fun

She won't last nearly as long as he could have, I was hoping he would go all the way, but it was a risk buying all the stuff that he did.

It is weird watchin some one you know on a game show aye! My grandad was on Wheel of fortune and he was a home head on the celebrity board years ago. He only had $15 dollars behind him but at least he got a diamond and gold dollar symboll tie pin.
He was also in a Perth Game show called "Initial Reaction" Me and my mates had a few too many to drink before we went to sit in the audience. My mate jumped an isle while they were filming and said quite loud "Lee! give me your car keys, Im Gonna spew!!" and you can hear it on tv after we taped it and watch it! LOL
Spewin I mised your brother mate! you should have told us before hand!!

So when you bomb out, do you still get your take home cash/prizes? Or is it all lost?

Never really watched that show "waits for the fruit to be thrown at me"

He took home about $38,000 of cash and prizes. Stuff he bought and won along the way. So he can't be two miserable. But he was two games away from taking home about $250,000
