Sacramento County man wins "The Price Is Right" grand prize on historic 10,000th episode
CARMICHAEL — A Sacramento County man is $100,000 richer after winning on the historic 10,000th episode of the popular game show "The Price Is Right." It was a big moment for Ryan Digman and a big milestone for the show. Digman lives in Carmichael as a single father with his 8-year-old son. They watch "The Price Is Right" together nearly every single day. It's become a fixture in their lives and daily routines, and when Digman saw the 10,000th episode was being taped, he knew he had to be there. The historic episode aired on Wednesday. Host Drew Carey joined Good Day Sacramento the day before to celebrate. Little did we know at that time, we had a local winner. "I ended up being the first person in line at 4:30 in the morning on the day of the taping," Digman said. He made the journey from Sacramento to Los Angeles solo, donning a shirt for his son that reads "I am a dad on a mission to spin the wheel." "I got to win a life-changing amount of money for me and my son, and it really kind of makes me cry a little bit still, he said. "You saw me really emotional because times right now are really rough for a lot of people." In his regular life, Digman works as a disability advocate for youth in Sacramento. On the show, he had a perfect first bid, earning his spot on the stage to play the grand prize game. "I even told people before I went up there, I said 'I'm going to go on "The Price Is Right" and win $100,000,' and I did," he said. The experience goes beyond memories. Digman said he's made lifelong friends with other contestants on the show including a woman from Colorado who he plans to see again within the next few weeks. "You never know. You might see us on an 'Amazing Race' type of journey in the future, connected by this wonderful experience that we've had," Digman said. Digman spent his 21st birthday as an audience member for the show. This time around, he left as a winner.

Want to Predict the Economy? Well Then, Enter My Derby
February 24, 2025 (Maple Hill Syndicate) - Terry Johnson, the winner of my Derby of Economic Forecasting Talent (DEFT) for 2024, likes to count trucks. Specifically, he counts the number of big trucks 18-wheelers and the like on a 45-mile stretch between Lincoln and York, Nebraska. More trucks means the economy is doing well. Fewer trucks is an economic danger sign. Last year I counted 329 trucks, by far the most I ever counted, Johnson said. Didn't look like a recession in the near future to me. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 2 Warning Sign with ^CL. Johnson, a retired sales rep for General Mills, beat out 43 other contestants to win the DEFT contest, which is held annually. He had the best guess on the U.S. unemployment rate, and one of the best guesses on interest rates. Looking ahead, Johnson predicts that 2025 will be pretty flat, after which he thinks the economy will do well, thanks to lower taxes and reduced regulation. Would you like to try your hand at predicting the economy? The contest is open to all. Over the years, both financial professions and amateurs have done well. How to Enter To enter, answer the six questions below. Send your entry to me at jdorfman@ or John Dorfman, Dorfman Value Investments, 101 Federal Street, Suite 1900, Boston MA 02110. Entries must be postmarked or time-stamped by midnight, March 15, 2025. Please provide: Your name Address Phone (please include a weekend phone number) Email address Occupation You aren't required to state the reasons behind your forecasts, but I am grateful if you do. Here are the questions. 1. The U.S. economy grew 2.8% in 2023. How much will the gross domestic product (GDP) grow or shrink in 2025? 2. Inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index, was 2.9% in 2024. What will inflation be this year? 3. The interest rate on 10-year U.S. government bonds started 2024 at 3.88% and rose to 4.39%. What will it be as of the end of 2025? 4. The price of crude oil (West Texas Intermediate) fell more than $5 a barrel in 2024, ending in $70.15. What will the oil price be on Dec. 31, 2025? 5. U.S. retail sales (including food) for the month of December 2024 were $730.3 billion. That was increase of about $24 billion from the prior December. What will retail sales total in December 2025? 6. Unemployment rose in 2024, to 4.1% from 3.7%. What will the unemployment rate be as of December 2025? Digman's Return Les Digman, a retired professor of business strategy at University of Nebraska, captured second place. He had tied for first in the 2020 DEFT contest, and says his plaque from that victory hands in a prominent place in his home. Digman won the silver medal mostly because of an accurate guess on the price of oil. He also got some points for his estimate of GDP. I'm not a fan of tariffs, Digman says. I think they will be an upward force on prices. That, in turn, could make the Federal Reserve less willing to cut interest rates. He's also a bit concerned about the layoffs of federal employees. With all these government layoffs and everything, if people start pulling back, it's hard to tell what will happen, he says. Jacobi Repeats Jerry Jacobi, a physical therapist, won third place in the derby, repeating his finish from four years ago. A winning guess on retail sales was the biggest reason for his success. Jacobi's biggest worry is high interest rates. I think we're stuck with these high rates for a while, he says. The Fed is likely to be in a holding pattern because of uncertainty. I wouldn't want to be Jerome Powell (the head of the Federal Reserve), Jacobi said. He's in a tricky spot because of uncertainty about tariffs and other aspects of the economy. Jacobi doesn't expect a recession in 2025. If there is one, he adds, it will probably be quick and the recovery strong as happened under President Ronald Reagan. Nebraska Triumphs Johnson and Jacobi are both from Omaha, Nebraska. Digman lives in Lincoln, Nebraska. So the winners in this year's contest were all Nebraskans. That happened even though 30 of the 44 contestants were from other places. There were entries from Florida, Nevada, New York, Pennsylvania, Texas and Virginia. Two entries were from Canada and one from Italy. Nebraska had also swept the honors in the 2020 contest. And of course it's the home of Warren Buffett (Trades, Portfolio), the country's most celebrated investor. It makes me want to spend more time in and around Omaha.
