Josef Fares tells in Friday evening's SVT program about the successes, the relationship to money, and about the first time he had 100 million kronor in his account.

Ella Halvarsson has a completely different economic situation and tells that she looks for extra prizes and hasn't taken out any salary until she earned 300,000 kronor in prize money during the World Championship in cross-country skiing.

It's not 100 million in the account, she says jokingly to Fares, writes svt.se.

Then, TV game entrepreneur Josef Fares promises on the spot to pay her the same amount, writes SVT.

As much as you got, as much you will get from me. I promise. You are so damn nice, says Fares.

In the makeup break, Fares handed over 300,000 kronor to Halvarsson, who was in shock.
