Isn't this what all those shows are about? I can't stand to watch them.

I also know a competitor in the TV challenges. This person told me all the same as cakedoff said above, and also told me that the big money prizes are not worth the work, because it costs as much to be a competitor as you can win. This person said they would not compete again, and they kept to their word. The competitors must provide and ship all their own product, supplies, and tools. I do not know if their own transportation and rooms are paid for or not.
