[Stiggers] Spinnin' Wheel

We return to America's favorite game show "Wheel of the Fortunate."

Philmo: "Robert 'Cash Flow' Smithson, the corporate C.E.O. who laid me off three years ago, has made it to the part of the show where he could double his dollars by solving the 'Big Money' puzzle."

Robert: "Philmo, it seems as if you've recovered well from the layoff. I did you a favor. Now you host a popular game show."

Philmo: "I'm a substitute for Pat Payback. And I've worked nothing but low-paying, temporary jobs. You've turned this middle-class worker into a poor bleep!"

Robert: "Watch your words, Kanye West II! You're about to screw up your game-show host gig."

Philmo: "Will you give your winnings to any charities?"

Robert: "I gotta keep the cash flowing. So I'll invest my money into profit-making companies that help the poor. It's like killing two birds with one big brick."

Philmo: "It's time to solve the puzzle. It's a six-letter word describing anyone who enjoys making money at the expense of other people. Choose six letters to help you solve the 'Big Money' puzzle."

Robert: "R, S, T, N, L and E."

Philmo: "Vanna White-Woman turns one R and two Es. Solve the puzzle, Robert."

Robert: "The word is 'GREEDY!'"

Philmo: "Robert, you've won the 'Big Money.' Now you have more money, and people continue to be broke and desperate. I know, 'don't hate.' This has been 'Wheel of the Fortunate.'"
