I don't know whom that was intended for. If it was for me, I thank you, however I have long been aware of the taxes the U.S. Government imposes on game show earnings. The majority of contestants who win prizes other than cash (such as a vehicle) are very rarely able to keep them, as the government charges so much in taxes for everything won that they simply don't have the money to pay for them without selling them to be able to pay it off.

tl;dr - Being a game show champion or winner in the U.S. is not all sunshine and rainbows.
