New York, NY
Stay-at-home mom
Susan has brought her whole family with her. Her husband, George, her 8 1/2 year old son, George, and her mom, Susan, are in the audience.
Susan had a job, but took time off to raise George, Jr. When Susan got the call from Millionaire to say she's be on the show, she was walking George, Jr. home from school. They jumped up and down on the sidewalk and hugged each other to celebrate. If she wins no money here, that moment alone was worth the whole experience.
George, Jr.'s advice to his mom is, "Good luck!" Meredith knows that he's also said that if Susan believes in herself, she'll do well.
