That's what I've been saying all along - Erin is a money-hungry whore! The fairest thing for her to have done was to split the $2 million with him, seeing as he took a great gamble and picked her. In fact, I thought that was what she offered him until I saw the check!! In fact, I'm sure Chad thought the same thing until he saw the check (which he didn't even look at while on the show). Maybe that's why they're not together anymore - because she's such a money-hungry whore.

I TOTALLY AGREE!!!!!!!!!!!!! When she said split, I thought that was so fair, and I actually thought she was pretty decent for a sec, but when they flashed to the check, 500,000 i though ewwwwww. Chad is all that, and she showed her lack of love, by pulling that stunt. The guy gave it up, she should give it up for him. How majorly cheap. Chad, is a one in a million, decent guy man, I would have probably gave him the two mill (just kidding)! Min 1 mill. Anyhow, she showed her true colors, and as it were Chad is a better catch than her, he should find himself a woman, who cares more about him than cash. Gosh

Ummm...she didn't have to give him anything at all so the fact that she "split" the cash the she would have received from the second show (remember, she could've kept the million from the first show) was pretty decent and generous considering these things usually don't work .


MM Why do we kill people who kill people to show that killing people is wrong?

True, she didn't have to give him a cent but if she was a class act at all, she would've given him $1 million, which is what he sacrificed for her. However, we all know she is anything but a class act. She is a money-hungry whore.

Mandy,

I agree with you and had posted on another thread that she didn't have to give him anything!

As much as I don't really care too much for Erin, I was glad the show had a happy ending. Chad is leaving the show with $500,000 in his pocket AND the "girl" so that's a whole lot more than he had coming in. I'm still confused though since I thought the 2 million was an annuity payment.

I'm sure Chad's 500,000 check was a prop - just like all the checks on there. He'll be paid out in time like Erin will, I'll bet.

I haven't been a big Erin fan - but I understand why she gave him the amount she did. They split the money from this show equally. He certainly wasn't entitled to what was in effect her money from the last show. And it's more than he was expecting to get, right?

Wrong! She lost it ALL not just one million if he didn't choose her, so the 2 million was from THIS show. She had an obligation to split that money 50/50 with him. He could have chosen the money (which he should have!) and she would have nothing! He made a huge leap of faith for her. He had no idea about the 2 million, so she should have rewarded his generosity by giving back what he gave up. Besides, if you're planning on possibley spending the rest of your life with someone, shouldn't everything you have be divided equally?

I agree with kcstrip. Erin showed how money-hungry she was when she only gave Chad $500,000. What a slap in the face for the guy who gave up $1 million to be with her. In the promos from last season, Erin is seen saying "Smart girls finish rich". Well, I guess that's her intention all along. I'll bet that she wasn't even gonna give him a dime but the producers had to urge her to give a little to make her look more like a better person.

Ahhhh.. Chad didnt have to do it either. And, considering that she was on the verge of getting nothing, two seconds earlier and Chad getting the million, she went the cheapscate route. I think Chad is generous, Erin is not.

9. "RE: Could some one please tell me WHY she did not cut him in for a million? "
Wonton got it right. The moment Erin agreed to give up the million from the first show, that money was gone. In order to get any money at all, she had to convince a guy to pick her at the end of 2. When that moment occurred, she won the $2 mil and it was a payoff solely tied to actions in 2. Splitting half meant giving Chad $1 mil.

And she should have been happy with that deal. She would have secured $1 mil that she gave up after the first show, garnered extra face time on TV for whatever acting aspirations she must have, and also emerged from the show looking like a magnanimous individual.

Instead she rationalized that the mil from the first show was hers and splitting the winnings from the second meant only giving Chad $500K. I can certainly see how a greedy individual could make that rationalization, but it definitely reveals the type of person you are.

Umm...HE didn't have to pick her either, and could be sitting back with a cool million and she would have nothing, which she deserves!!!!

The check was made out in the sum that Chad would get after taxes but I thought she should have made it out for 1 million anyways. So you know they are not together?? I watched them on the Today show this morning and Katie C asked if they were in love and neither of them answered...Erin was awkward and seemed fake but that is par for the course with her. Poor Chad- He seems to be truly "into" her...

You guys are all missing something. She went
on the second show not for nothing but to improve her image.

First show: takes money (bad image)

Second show: splits money (good image)

Thus the money is increased and the image problem corrected.

Dont agree? Im sure the good folks at NBC pointed out to her:

Imagine if she took the money both times! Two guys fall in love
and she robs them both. Th press she would get would
not be worth the 2 million. So she figured rightly, the
good press is worth $500 000. And who could argue with that.
All sorts of media organisations are lining up to make up
for the loss already.

Well calculated, and hope she goes to hell!

I was surprised too to see the amount on the check, but she did say to him, "I'm giving you half of the million we played for here." A lot of this is contrived and who knows how the producers manipulated the outcome. From the beginning it should have been if the guy chooses her then they both get a million.

I loved her rationale: "I'll split the million we were playing for here with you, Chad." Right, but she gave up that first million, in order to win TWO million. Therefore, they were playing for 2 million in the second show. But what do you expect from a girl who claims she needs the 2 million becuase of family problems. Yeah. The problem is, her sisters are married to rich guys and she's not. She probably doesn't have nearly as much cool stuff as they do. Chad, you are a good sport and I hope you met a nice girl while this was airing.

Now see, I thought she was just being smart. The rules do state that the contestant can take a lump sum instead of payments, like a lottery that lump sum will be smaller but you don't have to wait around for it. So I figured she was taking the lump sum and splitting it with him. And besides, she'll still be the one to pay the taxes, so if indeed he does get 500,000 he doesn't have much to complain about, since that's what he would have walked away with after taxes if he'd taken the money instead.

Taxes would still have to be taken out of the 500 grand. The lump sum option for the entire 2 million is just a little over $100,000, so she could not have possibly given him that much anyway. So, she's definitely a scheming, money hungry, whore!

19. "What about Rob?"
Obviously, she gave Chad $500,000, and is saving another $500,00 to split with Rob, who got her the first million.

Actually, I don't really believe she would have gone down to $0 if Chad did not pick her -- there was an unspecified "consolation prize" coming her way, so there was some logic of what she had done in spiltting only the $1 million.

she gave chad money period.. she was under no obligation to, and now she is a money grubbing whore??? she could have kept rob all along and taken the 2 mil without a second thought

Erin and Chad are very much together. They did a telephone interview on Regis and Kelly and Chad admitted that they are in love. Erin said she couldn't believe he finally admitted it to the media for the first time on Regis and Kelly. I guess neither one of them care too much about the money. It seems like they care more about one another.

23. "I agree whole heartedly"
mic813 is correct. You guys are being too hard on her. She took a leap choosing Chad so she could pursue a relationship with him. she knew Wade was going to choose her over the money but she followed her heart. I applaud her for that. It was so clear that she had strong feelings for Chad. She said she was giving him half of the money they played for on the show. He wasnt playing for $2mil. He was playing for $1mil and he got half and the girl. I am really happy with the way it turned out, I just think 2 hours was a rediculously long time for the show. there was nothing but filler and commercials. That pissed me off but the ending was great. I was surprised. I thought he was going to take the money.

Ok, Im done.

It is obvious that Chad likes Erin because he gave up one million
for her. Chad could have done better by returning the $500,OOO back to Erin and have Erin get all the money. After all, Chad likes Erin that much, and love conquers all. And perhaps Chad does not need that money.

27. "RE: Another thought"
Though I am thinking that Erin was probably being a gold-digger, here is another thought to throw out for discussion. Perhaps, she signed a contract that she was only allowed to share a certain amount (25%) of the winnings with her pick.

On Survivor, they aren't allowed to split the $1,000,000. Runner up gets $100,000 and that is it. Though, I think the winner is allowed to buy the other person a gift. I do believe that Tina promised Colby a motorbike (but Rosie O'Donnell gave Colby a bike so Tina gave the equivalent cash value of a bike so Colby could buy something else).

Feel free to discuss.


Three is the perfect number.

Erin could've given Chad any amount she wanted - that's what she said. She could've given him nothing at all. They gave her a blank cheque and allowed her to write the amount of her choice.

30. "RE: Could some one please tell me WHY she did not cut him in for a million? "

Erin could have said NO to playing the 2nd time round. And she could have walked away already with a million instead she played AGAIN. So why should the other mill reflect on this game at all? She played to gain another mill. And Chad put a mill-not 2. It's a business thing. Thats nice of her to have offered the 5OO thous period. Rob was ready to split the mill with her as well if she chose him. It's a game thats all$$

Erin sensed Chad new she was playing for something too. It's unfortunate though it was announced publicly that it may have been for NOTHING (as someone already mentioned) the money is received over a long period of time or if she accepts full payout early now and covers taxes etc. There won't be anything left for Chad.

Remember it is just a game as you stated.


She herself talked about how at first it just would have been great to get 2 million. Frankly I think that is all she cared about. Like I said if she was truly playing for heart like she likes to think, then when it came down to winning the check giving him a mil would have been nothing to her.

Chad should have given back the $500,000 back to Erin as he wants to win Erin's heart.

At least Erin is not a pretentious lady. She could have taken Rob instead of the money ( Love or Money 1 ) and pretended she had romantic connections with Rob when, but she did not. I thought the 2 shows were LOVE or MONEY , not Charity or Money.

In my opinion, a gold-digger is one who pretends to fall in love. In Love or Money 1, Erin did not misled Rob into thinking that she was in love with the handsome attorney. I think Paige was very interested in Rob, and if she were the choice of Rob and then took the money, perhaps one could say she was probably the gold-digger.

There are not too many saints around, are they? For those who love money, they are not in the minority. Mother Teresa is really missed! The show should have been called "Mother Teresa, Where Are Thou?"

Erin played with Rob on many levels. First, she told him that she was starting to fall for him (in FLOM1). Not the kind of thing you'd say to someone you don't give a hoot about. Second, she led him on. She made him believe she was interested in him. That's why he picked her. That, my friend, is a gold-digger. Okay, if that wasn't proof enough, we knew she didn't care for Rob. So, why in the world would she keep him around and not get rid of him right away after he came back in FLOM2? Well, that's cuz she knew he'd pick her over the money! Again, that is a gold-diggin b*tch!

It's too bad when a salesperson convinces organizations to buy his products because some would consider that gold-digging. Poor Rob, he is a living commodity and he is the object of gold-digging. Erin should be hired by big organizations because of her persuasive abilities. She seems to be unlike Paige who I think was using her kissable lips to convince Rob to pick her. I respect Rob for not choosing those ladies who pretend to be falling in love by using their kissable lips too much. Erin may be gold-digging, but Rob and Chad both like her, and that is more than enough for others to be envious. Erin has the money and she has Chad! Too bad for the others who do not have either one of them!

Perhaps the best way to stop gold-digging on reality shows is to eliminate all competitors except one on the first night.


To Erin, congratulations! With all the gold, may her sky continue to have silver linings!

Erin won the first FLOM outright, without Chad's help. That one million dollars is hers. She split the second million dollars for FLOM2 with Chad, giving him half of the one million dollars from the second show. He shouldnt get any of her money from the first show. She got Rob to pick her and that million is hers. Hope your question is answered.

That wasn't the agreement. Erin had the choice of trading in her million for a chance at two million. Her winning the two million is a separate game. Had Chad not chosen her, she would've got nothing (but a consolation prize). Hence, that first million she won was null and void after she took the chance at the two million.

Hmmm, when she worked here at Advent Software she was never considered cheap... and he turned heads too. She was a friendly person and easy to get along with. Many people would have kept it all....
Maybe you should know what somebody is like (other than watching them for 1 hour once a week on a T.V. show) before you pass judgement. I'm sure many on this forum would not have even been that generous.

she won a million dollars...it's hers and hers alone. So that's why Chad only got $500,000.

You guys are all missing something. She went
on the second show not for nothing but to improve her image.

First show: takes money (bad image)

Second show: splits money (good image)

Thus the money is increased and the image problem corrected.

Dont agree? Im sure the good folks at NBC pointed out to her:

Imagine if she took the money both times! Two guys fall in love
and she robs them both. Th press she would get would
not be worth the 2 million. So she figured rightly, the
good press is worth $500 000. And who could argue with that.
All sorts of media organisations are lining up to make up
for the loss already.

Well calculated, and hope she goes to hell!

One has to be mentally unstable to worry about how people think of herself/himself?


You mean only the mentally unstable go to heaven?
