Survivor host Jeff Probst likes to tell players, “The game is the lure.” But what if it isn’t? What if the lure is actually that $1 million check? (A check that used to literally be even bigger, back when they presented amazing, oversized novelty checks to the winners.)
So what is more important: the cash prize, or the experience of actually playing (and winning) the game? We put that question to the cast of Survivor 50 by having them play a game of Would You Rather? The game consisted of a simple question that we have asked casts before: Would you rather be voted out first of Survivor and get $1 million, or win the game but get absolutely nothing? Cash or victory: What’s more important?

We have had casts of newbies in the past that came down overwhelmingly on the side of winning the game and forgoing the cash, but how would a cast of all returning players (including a few winners) respond? We found out when we were able to corral 20 of the Survivor 50 players to see if they would choose the money or the title of Sole Survivor. How did they respond? Check out the video below to see for yourself. And then cast your vote in our poll under the video as to how you would answer that exact same question.
