Erm all she would have won was $23,100 even if she got them all correct. I doubt 1 million baht would have made her very rich even if she had won it.

Per Capita GDP is $6,400 USD in Thailand, and in the US it is $33,900 USD. So $23,100 USD there is $122,358 USD here. Not a million dollars, but still pretty nice. :)

The CIA claims our per capita GDP is about 36,200 and that thailand's is about 6K even, so there might be even more of a discrepancy.

Lertrak Panjanawaporn, 44, stunned the producers of the popular "Who Wants to be a Millionaire? (news - Y! TV)" show by answering all 16 questions correctly and winning one million baht ($23,100).

Damn, she only would have won 23k. That sucks.
