Besides, we watched “The Bachelor” last season. We know what happens to #1s and #2s. You see, Melissa was picked #1 and offered a proposal while Molly was rejected and left asking “why?” on national TV. Of course a couple months later, #2 Molly was asked back and #1 Melissa was dumped, making her the actual #2 and Molly the new #1. And when “Dancing with the Stars” heard about the now #2 Melissa, they asked her to be on their #1 hit show where she made bank. And the first #2, who eventually became #1, is still in love, which is worth more than money - kind of like ideas. You can’t put a price on good one.
