After winning NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” in 2006, Fator signed what he said was a $100 million deal, if all the contract conditions worked out.
The Fators had gone all-in two years ago when the “America’s Got Talent” opportunity came up. He put his career on hold to concentrate on the competition, and she quit her job to assist him.
