Tom Walsh, former Senior Policy Adviser for the Senate’s Finance Committee, took home an impressive $184,900 from his 2004 wins! With the tournament, he won a total of $236,900. On the Jeopardy! website, he updated fans saying, “My winnings are allowing me to support work that helps people in the developing world, such as education for refugees from Burma, and microcredit for people affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa. It’s amazing that Jeopardy! could end up being a blessing to people on the far side of the world, but it is!” How sweet!
