I wonder if they could get away with a season where there's no monetary reward at all. Just the title of sole survivor and a chance to get a flattering edit on TV.

Maybe in Japan, where the culture is basically that for civilian competitions. Winning Sasuke for example brings no financial reward, just glory.

(The only civilian game show here, Panel Quiz Attack 25, finally ended its run last year, so there are now no shows on TV here where civvies can win money. It's a weird feeling seeing, to use a very recent example, ____Hikakin____ win the most recent Tosochu by a hair's breath and get ~$15K even though they clearly don't need the money.)

Knowing Japan though they would probably play with celebrities anyway since most civvies probably couldn't clear their schedule for a month to compete.
