I'm amazed by the number of people in this thread who have gotten the challenge wrong.
They didn't only have 2 hours to conceive and execute their idea, nor did they have to limit themselves to the $5.00.
They were given an envelope that contained an unknown amount of seed money, and then they had 4 or 5 days to decide how to make money with it. They would only have 2 hours once they opened the envelope to make as much money as possible.
The challenge wasn't what people could make with $5.00, it's how the teams dealt with a set of unknowns in order to make money.
(Edit: Someone disagrees with me, but I'm not sure why. If you watch the video, it's quite clear that this is the case. I'm not just stating an opinion here.)
- nkurz 17y agoI haven't voted you either way, but from the video it's still not clear to me whether the $5 was a known or unknown amount. I agree that the exercise makes more sense if it's unknown, but I don't think it was ever clearly stated.
