A HOME INSPECTOR AND CLOTHING DESIGNER COMPETE FOR THE BIG PAYCHECK, ON ABC'S "SET FOR LIFE"

"Episode 105"-- Contestants Michael Amoroso, a home inspector from Smithtown, New York and Taye Swing, a clothing designer from Castaic, California will attempt to win a monthly paycheck for one month, three years, twenty � up to forty years -- possibly enough to leave them "Set for Life" -- FRIDAY, AUGUST 17 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network

In "Set for Life," contestants have the chance to win a monthly paycheck for one month, three years, twenty years � up to forty years. They will battle to receive a monthly paycheck for as long as possible � the maximum a contestant can win is up to four million dollars paid as a monthly stipend over 40 years! This show does not require skill. There are no questions to answer. It's all about knowing when to stop and bringing along a trustworthy "guardian angel" who will ensure you go home a winner.

The game is simple -- the contestant must randomly choose among 15 light sticks to progress up or down the Time Ladder. Choose a white light and you go up one step, increasing the time you'll receive a monthly paycheck. But if a red light is chosen, you move down the Time Ladder, decreasing the amount of time you'll receive a monthly paycheck. If contestants finds four red lights, their game on the floor is over.

Meanwhile, in a soundproof isolation booth, the contestant's partner, or his/her "guardian angel," is in control of the contestant's financial fate. Their job is to guarantee their loved one goes home with money. Simply by pushing a button at any time to stop the game, the guardian angel can guarantee the contestant goes home with a fortune -- or it could cost them everything... You won't find out what the guardian angel does until the very end of the game, so every game ends with an emotional surprise.
