53: Dave won $113k on a game show
Dave recently found himself $113,000 richer. He credits that to practice, some good luck, and being pretty good at solving word puzzles. He won cash, a trip to Barbados, and a new BMW by being a contestant on Wheel of Fortune. And he told me what Vanna White is REALLY like.
