At the contestant search in NYC, they asked everyone this question : If it were down to $20K and the million, do you deal or no deal an offer of $400K? I'm fairly confident that anyone who said Deal, got the boot. I said Deal, and i didn't get a call back.
They want risktakers. But it sounds like they don't want rational folks taking risks.

That's a mighty stupid question to use to trim the applicants down, because so far every single person on the show who's got down to one big amount and one tiny amount has taken the deal, if I remember correctly.
A much more reasonable test would be the $1, $5, $20K and a million situation, where just about all of us would take the deal, and where the contestants have pretty much always gone for it.
