Children's charities: The dream fund?

Question

Today in the hospital while I was getting my chemo treatment, one of the nursestold me I could fill in a dream fund application of wheat my biggest dream is. I put down that I wanted to be a contestant on the game show "Are you smarter than a 5th grader" to win some money and be on TV. They told me they'd try to get me on that show. I'm only 16 and I think they only allow adults to be contestants on the show. Do you think the dream fund company has a good chance of getting me on that show? Sources?

Answer 1

I hope you get your wish. It is not impossible,  I am sure the Dream fund company can work out any details. Good luck.

Answer 2

Game shows are television entertainment; so you need to ensure that you don't appear or seem to be unentertaining.  Be happy, excited, outgoing - you have to be someone that the audience is willing to try and support.  Show enthusiasm, but don't be a psycho.  Smile a lot, make sure you look good, and dress somewhat mainstream.

The trick isn't knowing all the right answers - the trick is to get people to identify with you.
