One thing I guess we are missing when watching the show is the financial situation of contestants when they are there. Who knows? Maybe $150,000 is a drop in the bucket for that couple, whereas for a lot of us it is a lot of money.

I truly felt horrible for the girl and her husband. Well, mostly for the husband who told her to walk with $150k. At the end, he looked like he wanted someone to wake him from this bad dream. $330k sitting there for the taking, and her friends tell her to keep playing! The worst part was with 5 cases left, $300k offer on the table, and only 2 cases higher than the offer, her mother says 'Think about the offer after opening just ONE MORE case? Think about it? Say NO DEAL!' After the show, we had a discussion about what it takes most Americans to come up with $300k. For most, I would say it would take years! I agree with you on walking early, but not to walk with that much money because of greed is truly sad! The Medicated’s ended up watching the same show last night as well.
