worth it?

This article is about the money people pay in their efforts to be on reality TV.

We're talking thousands of dollars here.

It's something I never really thought about, since most reality TV competitions give you the impression the contestants go from rags to riches.

But that's not the case. Between transportation, lodging, clothing and audition-tape mailing costs, contestants can easily spend well over $5,000.

The article points to one guy who spent $7,000 trying to get on "Project Runway." He didn't make it.

How much would you be willing to pay to fight for your dream on reality TV?
