Obviously any sequel will involve "lots of money." I just don't see how you can repeat such a colossal deception without refering to SNL's skit suggestions (Joe Hetero, etc.).

This is a one-time-per-decade show....there is no possible way to do an effective sequel that keeps to the original. They may change the show a lot and try to make it look like a sequel, but we won't want to see another "Joe Millionaire" or perhaps "Joe Billionaire" until somewhere around the year 2013.

I came up with a way to do it.

Two guys, one an actual millionaire one a poor schlub.
They make the decisions and dwindle it down to three.
at which points the ladies vote on who they want to continue on with, sort of turn the tables and eliminate one guy.

then the guy who is left dwindles it down to one and we reveal weather they got a millionaire or a construction worker.

There is one way to do it:

This time, we were TOLD who Evan is, and that he's a $19K construction worker.

Next time, it'll be more of an "Is he? Or isn't he?" type of deception.

Neither we nor the girls will know if the guy really is rich or poor or in between until the end.

Yeah, but if you do it that way, all the chick has to do is accept the guy, and if it turns out he's not a millionaire, she can dump him from there.
