I saw a new television show last night called 'The Briefcase'. I found it to be a very interesting premise to the show. Here's how the show works.

Two different couples get a briefcase with $101,000 in it. They get $1,000 to spend on anything they'd like to do. The other $100,000 they will have to decide how much to keep and how much to give to a family in need.

They have 72 hours to decide and will be a closer look at the other families life. The catch is each couple doesn't know that the other couple is in the same situation.

After both couples make their final decision of how much money to keep and to give away, both couples meet in person for the first time, each couple thinks they are there to give money to the other couple.

Last night's show one couple in their 30's had three children and had filed for bankruptcy. The husband is a fisherman in Key West and the wife and kids live seven months of the year in North Carolina. One child has autism and is home schooled. The couple earns close to $40,000 a year.

The other couple are also in their 30's and both are 'little people'. They earn $71,000 a year and are trying to adopt a 'little person' baby because the wife can not give birth.

It's very interesting to see how much they end up giving to the other couple. Last night the 'little people ended keeping $80,000 and giving the other couple $20,000. The other couple gave the 'little people' couple $40,000 and they kept $60,000. So, in the end, the 'little people couple got $120,000 and the other couple ended up with $80,000.

What you you do?
