It's reality TV folks. Sooner or later you will see people die for the chance to make money on a reality show.
are you saying it's not tax deductable for the builders? That's horrible man!! Can't you say that you donated it to the family and not ABC? You know the more I think about this the more it pisses me off, why should Ty and the gang be making a fortune off this how while hard working people that aren't millionairs are donating their time???
