WHO WANTS TO SPEND A MILLION DOLLARS?

Rich man Donald Trump is pitching to the networks a new reality show in which he would challenge contestants to spend $1 million in 30 minutes. The Donald would host the proposed series — titled Billionaire — from his perch atop New York's Trump Towers, Variety reports. "I like the selection process, because they'll be taking people in strange situations," Trump said. "They will be enlisted when they're about to get married or there'll be a husband in a delivery room, waiting for the birth of his child. He can take a pass, or say, 'Honey, I'll be back in an hour.'" Of course, there are rules: Contestants can't use the phone or computer to make purchases, and there's a $200,000 cap on any single item. (Our advice: Head to an airport gift shop.)
