I think it should be a year.

The way overdue bills and overdraft fees start to pile up. Trying to plan for holidays and birthdays.

Get the popcorn ready!

Looks like my comment might not have saved.

I think it should be a year.

The way overdue bills and overdraft fees would start to pile up. Trying to watch them plan for holidays or birthday spending...

Why stop at a year? How about they have to do it indefinitely until they have a major health crisis that bankrupts them!)

Sure, but they must have skin in the game. Say, if they cheat or leave the show early, they lose a non-trivial amount of their fortunes.

There already are shows like this out there!

there was a show called Undercover Boss where the CEO of the company had to dress up like a common Joe and live the life of one of his employees for a week. the employee who treated him better was then rewarded by the CEO with money, promotions etc.

The problem I had with that show is that the people the boss interacted with were surely predetermined.

I would be expected a show like this to have similarly orchestrated situations.
