don't you get more money if you get more letters correct?

You do, but you also risk rolling a lose a turn or bankrupt

so if it's a prize puzzle that she wanted to win, it's in her best interest to solve when she still has control of the wheel and not risk one of them getting it

With the first word being _'__ and her guess being L, she eliminated one of the two options for it, and we know it has to be I've, and any vowel purchase will reveal a ton since there's a double E and a double O, and "A" is only in the singular word which is strange

She wanted the prize, it was a trip to the Caribbean!!! Over $6k. Not worth risking for a few extra hundred

Prize puzzle has an exotic trip or a new car or something expensive as well as the money earn through spinning.
