Bravest Tom Westman is a now millionaire.

 
"FDNY Firefighter Tom Westman the victor in Survivor: Palau picked up his winnings, a check for $1 million, on CBS' The Early Show Monday.

Westman, 41, a father of three who lives on Long Island, is a second-generation New York City fireman...." CBS website

I admire Tom and the way he played the game. Our family watches the show together and have since the series began. Tom is a ray of light for the good in life as he managed to win the competition without compromising his integrity, something never done on Survivor. Tom epitomized what people admire about persons in the fire service. Stand up guys and women make up the service. Tom Westman gave all fire personnel something to be proud of.
Congratulations Tom. My family is proud of you and your efforts. I am especially proud because my kids got to see a man of integrity, a firefighter get the prize!
