Advantages: Good insight, helps fund beneficial projects

Disadvantages: None

The Secret Millionaire is a reality show that comes on for a month or two throughout the whole year. It comes on channel 4 and is normally one hour long.
The show is about a new millionaire each week. He or she started out in a deprived background and through hard work and perseverance turned their life around and made millions.
For a whole week, the millionaire has to go back to a poor area, often council estates, and live the life of a normal resident there. They have a ridiculously low budget on which to live on and spend the week looking for charities or organisations which are beneficial to the whole soceity. At the end of the week, they decide if they are going to give money and get involved in any good projects they may have come across.
This programme is great in my opinion as it is reality. It is not all show like Big Brother or I'm A Celeb, it actually shows what real people have to go through.

Summary: A millionaire goes back to their roots and helps out people who they were once in the same boat as.
