Syndie Millionaire thought
zachhoran:
As we know, contestants on this season of Millionaire have to pay their own way to NYC. Therefore, the contestants who fail to make it to the $1000 level end up winning nothing(in the past they got the free trip to NYC). Is there a lovely parting gift for those $0 Hot Seat winners? None is announced during the show.
Little Big Brother:
This is pure guessing on my part, and I have nothing to back up this guess, but if they decide to do another Zero Dollar Winner week, they may pay the way for those contestants to come back. Not exactly a parting gift, but a second chance is better than nothing.
Although, with the way the goose eggs have been dropping this season, it could be a ZD month rather than a week.

They did have a Zero Dollar winner return week last season, so that is possible
Steve McClellan:
When I taped my episode last week, Leigh Hampton mentioned that there have been nine zeroes this season. No mention was made of them receiving anything for their efforts (except the free food in the contestant kitchen, of course). :)

In response to the following question from Zach Horan that was asked in this thread on 10-27-2003:

--- End quote ---
I wouldn't rule out a contestant on that show leaving with absolutely nothing after missing any of the first five questions in his/her stack -- I know that losing contestants on Weakest Link did leave with nothing!

(Of course, there was that one game show that Wink Martindale hosted a few years ago in which contestants were very happy to end up with nothing!)
