Josies offer was genuine I think. She had no reason to mention the offer if she didn't want to stick to it. As it is he had offers made to him anyway so she didn't have to buy them for him in the end.

The agreed share if they came 1st & 2nd was...........from the £50k winner's fund, £30k winner, £20k 2nd place. (This is totally separate from the division of the other £50k between the 5)

You can watch them shake on it here:

Didn't Anthony, Craig, Saskia and Maxwell vow to share the money if they won and Anthony never stuck to his word. It seems they never spoke again because of it.
It is easier when in the house to make promises and then go back on them when reality hits home.

Its not as if it is a couple of quid you are giving away. Aaron has a child, ex-wife and family and himself he could do so much with the money for them. Its not a huge ammount of money although it is more than he had before he entered the house.

But in the house you are not thinking how you will feel once you have left the house a winner. He has already been done out of half of the money. That alone should make him think about splitting the money. If he does I suppose its up to him but I can't help feeling the messing with the money in the first place was a bit dodgy.

The same with Alex. I am sure she has a lot she wants to do with the money and if she goes back on the sharing of it I don't blame her. I am sure they will all make a little more on top of what they have gained.

What you say is sensible (albeit that 'welching' on as deal made on national TV does seem highly unprincipled!).

I'm having more laffs today at certain Aaronites pointing the finger at Alex with the suggestion she'll likely 'welch' and being very judgemental of her character. It seems that some were unaware that Aaron had made a further agreement with Jay to split the winner's £50k on a 30/20 basis, and when questioned about Lord Aaron's likely actions, the attitude has often been that 'he should keep it'.

The double-standards are just such a giggle.

It's as simple as this.

1) BB knew Aaron was ahead in the polls, & split the 100k to spite *him*.
2) IF;


2a) Everyone keeps their word.
2b) If Everyone welches.
2c) If Alex splits & Aaron welches.
2d) If Aaron splits & Alex welches.

2a)
Arron = £30,950
Jay = £29,500
Alex = 10k
Tom = 10k
Louise = £9,500 (And a 200k photoshoot like rebeckah, which she won't split)

2b)
Aaron = £50,950
Jay = £14,500
Alex = 30k & nice shoes.
Louise = £3,500 (And a 200k photoshoot like rebeckah, which she won't split)
Tom = £10 & a nice watch.

2c)
Aaron = £50,950
Jay = £14,500 or
Jay = £9,500 (If he also splits) which [He wouldn't given that scenario]
Alex = 10k (Or 20k if Jay doesn't split. As she then won't give louise any)
Louise = £3,500 or (£9,500 depending on Jay) + 200k Photoshoot.
Tom = 10k
2d)
Arron = £30,950
Jay = £34,500
Alex = £30,00 & shoes
Tom = £10 & watch
Louise = £3,500 (And a 200k photoshoot like rebeckah, which she won't split)


Its a "Prisoner dilema" scenario.

With the grinder that Aaron will *NOW* realise he SHOULD have got the full 100k.


But we know 2 things about Aaron.

A) He is smart.
B) He liked Alex (as a little sister)

Given that in scenarios;

2a, 2c & 2d. Jay has *MORE* money than Alex.

He will try to avoid *ANY* outcome that Gives Jay more money than Alex.

Given that 2d has two nasty affects.

1) Jay has more than Alex.
2) Jay has more than Aaron. (Oh yes, Jay has MORE than Aaron)

We know he will avoid 2d like cancer.

2a ALSO gives Jay more than Alex. So he won't be doing that either.

His ***ONLY*** options are,

2b & 2c.

Given they are both scenarios where he *HAS* to welch.

The "Nash Equilibrium" for Aaron is to --------> Welch.

Sorry to be slightly picky, but I believe yer arithmetic went a little astray on the first one.

2a) Everyone keeps their word

Aaron - £40,000 (simply £30k + £10k)
Jay - £29,500
Alex - £10,000
Tom - £10,000
Louise - £9,500

Haven't counted the other scenarios but, in any case, I would hope that Aaron/Alex are not going to prove themselves to be disingenuous liars with no integrity who 'welch' on the financial splits firmly agreed upon on national TV.

Maybe I'm just 'gifting' them more integrity than I should tho

Aaron's 'share' was £990........ so all other figures (and the supposed calculations) are all wrong-for both of you!!!

Aaron already has £9,500

If he gives Jay £20k He has £39,500. (I was assuming he wouldn't get an extra 10k bein the winner)

I hope that he does! he should never have come up with a plan to split or agree to it if not his idea! Jay has at least 10k he'll be sure to make more from the back of this. the winner should have got double initially so to then split it seems mad to me! you wouldn't catch me splitting my winnings lol

Aaron should put Jay's share of the money on black on a roulette table.

Oh yeah and if you are in the house.. don't make deals about splitting. If you win, you win. End of.

However BB complicated things with dividing the 50 grand is no equal amounts. Muahahaha!

I hope there is a money twist next year too. All they do is sit in a house for 9 weeks. Not worth the full 100 grand

He should use his ways to somehow screw Alex and then Louise over, ensuring that him and Jay get all of the money. As they're the only deserving ones of it anyway.

This quote from the Daily Star seems to suggest that Lord Integrity is indeed gonna welch on the agreement:

"Last night Aaron vowed to spend the £50,000 prize.........."

(but then again, the DS is usually a bit sketchy with minor details such as facts or what has actually been said!)

Blimey,give the bloke a chance,he's probably still reeling from Friday,I doubt he has thought much about anything other than seeing his little boy and his family,IF they ,made a deal,Aaron will honour that,although I am not sure any of the others would have done.Maybe Jay,but not certain.

I don't see why he should other than if he made a firm agreement with a handshake but I think that was a daft thing to do, Jay is not a joint winner,he is already getting 10k himself so really Aaron should keep the 50k.By all means though let Jay have the other 10k he was going to get from Alex.

I would never have agreed to split it,not just with Jay but with any other housemate,it's already been split by BB themselves, actually if I was Jay I wouldn't hold anyone to that agreement likely made on the spur of the moment.

Aaron has a son, he is the winner of the series,he should walk away with the lions's share of the prize fund.It would not be right for Jay to walk away with as much as the winner.
Aaron made a foolish agreement there if he did agree fully, in my opinion.

As in the video I linked directly above your post do you mean?! hahahaha

(PS - You'll note from the vid that it is actually Aaron who reases the topic first by mention of a previous understanding he had with Harry)

Since Jay thought it was fine to break an agreement he (and Louise) had with Aaron re the birthday gifts: Aaron would be well within his rights to now say: "Sorry mate; this is called payback for trying to make me look bad......"
