Don’t tell my wife this (or my mom). I don’t want to be roped into a board game every weekend, but I secretly like playing games.

Since I was a youngin, I’ve played everything from the classics like Monopoly and Risk to Codenames and Formula D (if you like competitive games, both of these last two are KILLER!!)

As a kid, I was always a fan game shows, whether it was watching Wheel of Fortune with my Grandma, or geeking out on Jeopardy.

Ya know kids, before there was reality TV, game shows were the best form of TV to just veg out to (aside from infomercials…ya I’m talking to you Ron Popeil!). Jeepers I sounded old there…

Anyways, one of the best game shows from my vintage that has stood the test of time is Family Feud.

Funny questions, answers and quotes from a game that has been an at home favorite for kids and adults for years. Also includes a bonus money-themed quiz!!

I can remember being a wee lad and sitting down with my family to watch the classic bad fashion 80’s version of this game show. Not only did I find myself dying laughing at some of the answers people would give, it gave our family a chance to talk about some of the answers we’d give. And while this might not seem like a big deal, getting your kids talking (about anything) can be a herculean task for many parents More on that later).

Family Feud Fast Money Questions

Some of the craziest answers came when contestants were asked the family feud fast money questions.

In the fast money round, the winning family is asked to choose two members to participate in a special round where they can win up to $20,000!!

With one contestant backstage, the other is asked to answer a series of five rapid-fire family feud fast money questions in 20 seconds. After the time is up, the host reveals the number one answer for each of the questions, as given by a random survey of 100 people.

Next, the second family member comes out and answers the same questions in 25 seconds (a buzzer goes if they repeat an answer that the first person gave, so they give them a bit of extra time).

The name of the game is to get all five of the number one responses, or as many of the top responses as possible, between the two family members.

You Said What!!??

Now because of the time pressure that people are under, the answers in this section can get quite hilarious. Oftentimes, people speak without thinking, which is always good for a laugh (or cringe).

Here’s a couple of examples of gut-busting family feud fast money questions and responses:

Name something a doctor might pull out of a person → gerbil

Name something burglar wouldn’t want to see when he breaks into a house → naked grandma

Name something you might buy that could turn out to be phony → a horse

Name an animal whose eggs you’d probably never eat for breakfast → hamster

Name a yellow fruit → orange

Name something you feel before you buy it → excited

How Does This Relate to Money?

But Matt, you might be saying, you’re a personal finance blogger. What does Family Feud have to do with money?

Well, some of the most comical answers, and the most honest, came from money themed questions. Over the years there has been a TON of money related content in the Family Feud fast money questions.

I thought it would be fun to have a bit of a lighter post this week.

No “How to graduate from school without student loans” or “13 tips to get rich quick”.

Nope, hopefully just a few laughs and a chance to see how well you know the American public.

So without further ado, I present, the Method to Your Money Family Feud Fast Money questions!!
