Over 200 million dollars and the number keeps growing so fast the site still has it listed at 190 million under the fun facts. The actual figure for the 5,000 episode on February 27 2009 was announced at over $200,000,000. The money is not considered to be given away and it is won by the contestants and awarded by Wheel of Fortune. The money given away is much less and is like the Maxwell House coffee donations to charity made for $2,500 when a contestant wins the bonus round.
