Quick-fire survey questions designed for the Fast Money bonus round — short prompts, popular answers, big payoffs.
Fast Money rounds need a very specific kind of question: short enough to read in under 3 seconds, broad enough that the average person has an instant answer, and surprising enough that two players will rarely give the same response. That's a tougher recipe than regular Family Feud questions.
This list contains 50 hand-picked Fast Money questions sorted by theme. Use them for the bonus round at the end of your game, or as a quick-fire warm-up to get everyone laughing.
The standard format: one player gets 20 seconds to answer 5 questions, then a second player gets 25 seconds for the same questions but can't repeat the first player's answers. Combined points need to hit 200 to win the bonus.
Want to run this format automatically? Our free game builder has a Fast Money mode that handles the timer, point reveal, and "duplicate answer" buzz so you can focus on hosting.

Fast Money is the bonus round at the end of the show. One player answers 5 questions in 20 seconds, then a second player answers the same 5 in 25 seconds without repeating. Combined points need to hit 200 to win.
Exactly 5 per Fast Money round. If you're running multiple rounds across an evening, plan for 5 fresh questions per round so nothing repeats.
Short enough to read in under 3 seconds, broad enough that any adult has an instant answer, and not so obvious that everyone gives the same response. Our list above is curated for exactly this.
If the second player gives the same answer as the first, a buzzer sounds and they must give a different answer. Our builder handles this automatically with a duplicate-detection mode.
No — Fast Money is strictly individual. The player is isolated and the rest of the team can't help. That's what makes it tense.
Up to you. The TV show pays cash; party hosts often use a small gift card, a trophy, or bragging rights. The point cap (200) stays the same.
Yes — drop to 3 questions and 15/20 second timers. Aim the threshold at 120 points instead of 200. Our builder lets you customize all of these.
Beyond this list, you can use any short survey-style question. The trick is testing them on a small group first — anything that gets the same answer from 3 out of 5 testers is too obvious for Fast Money.
