Share Your Top Reasons
I enjoy challenges
- To become a contestant on a game show would be rewarding and entertaining to me. The challenge behind answering the questions correctly itself would be fun, and to have friends and family lend their support would make it even more rewarding.

Fun, fun, fun!
- I like excitement, the game of chance, and fun stuff. It would give me one of the biggest thrills ever!

Games Are Exciting!
- Not only the thought of winning anything but, I was on Family Feud 8 yrs ago and I still talk about the rush. It was so fun! The dream of winning a large amount of money is also exciting.

To Start a New Life
- I would love to be a game show contestant because I want to have a new start in my life. I raised three kids on my own and now they're all married. My dream is to have my own house and the day that I pass away, I want to leave the house to my three kids.

Surgery
- I would love to become a contestant on the game show to have my surgery done. I have two wonderful kids who love me. I always thought that I wouldn't want to have children again so I had my tubes tied. I have met a wonderful man who now is my fiance and he wants to have kids. I want to give him that child, but we don't have the extra funds to pay for the surgery.

I am about to lose everything
- My son has been battling brain/spine cancer for 15 years now, and with the hit to our economy, my husband and I have lost our jobs. Just the financial burdens from having a terminally ill child alone, is enough burden to force someone to give up, but then to have to fight this dreadful disease in today's economy, is just a death sentence. My family is struggling financially and we are about to lose everything, so I think it is obvious why I would want to be a contestant on a game show. Unlike so many others, I do not have a wish to be rich, I only want to survive.

For Laughs and Maybe Cash
- Hiya, I would like to challenge the Banker on Deal or No Deal, but most of all talk to him on the phone! He's so funny and I like his sarcasm. However it could be me going away having the last laugh. Anyway, if I didn't win any money I could certainly gain a laugh! And if I win some money (which would be nice too!) I would take some time off from work & study at the University as I couldn't afford it before. Cheers!

- —Guest Kimberly Samuels
To Pay Bills
- I need help with my bills. I've got 3 kids, 13, 12, and 5 and one of the thinks she is grown.

I'm Qualified
- I want to be on 'Pay it Off' on BET! I am as strong as they come. I've got what it takes to do everything needed to take care of my "little man." He keeps me in a good place and I do the same for him. I just can't let him know that we may lose the home I bought as a single parent 13 yrs ago. Kids need to be kids and he is as cool and polite as they come. He wants to go to Disney World, but we need a home first. But game shows really come up with a way to make it fun and also challenge people to know their stuff and work for it.

Game Show
- I would love to be on a game show because I'm a gambler, and I believe that if I get the chance to be on Deal or No Deal,I will become a millionaire. Even if I can't be a millionaire at least I can say "I tried," and I know that I will leave with at least enough money to pay my bills and have a nice place to stay.I have been good to people and I really deserve to be happy. I'm 65 and still alive.
