Not to be cold hearted, but do you really think these "millionaires" are actually giving up any of their own money?

I don't know, I guess I would like to think it is possible. You think Fox is fronting all this? I just tried to see and it looked like the checkbook was the same

(Note on the 2nd show right now, wife rockin some big Gucci glasses right now)

Look at it this way..If they aren't fronting the money, then the "Millionaires" are getting paid somehow. If the "Millionaires" are so big hearted, they can just donate the money anonymousley...Fox is raking in huge advertising bucks...If I had $20 Million bucks, I wouldn't be cool giving $100K to a homeless guy AND FOX taking down millions in advertising. I'd give him the money and tell FOX to shove it

I agree, especially because it seems like the two familys they have had on so far have never 'helped' before.

I gotta start thinking more big picture-esque.

I haven't watched the show, but I can answer your question...

NO.

I'm sure it is similar to Oprah's "gifts".

A bunch of rich snots, thinking they are better than they really are. I'm sure it's all Fox $. America loves the feel good BS.
