Final Jeopardy Wagers and Winner for May 12
Andrew won the tight match on May 12 and becomes our new Jeopardy champion, although no one got the Final Jeopardy clue right this time.
Tied with Rachel with $5,600, Andrew decided not to risk anything, a bold but wise move since he didn’t lose anything on his incorrect answer of “Mark Cuban.” He remained in first place with $5,600.
On the flipside, Rachel wagered $5,100 but was also incorrect with “Sergei Brin,” dropping her score from $5,600 to a mere $500. That was still good for second place.
Kara had momentum in the first round but finished the second round with only $400. She bet $0 and didn’t provide a response, leaving her in third place.
Final Jeopardy Answer for May 12
The correct answer for Final Jeopardy on May 12, 2025 is “Who is Michael Dell?”
Still at the University of Texas, Michael Dell registered his new company called PC’s Limited in 1984 and believed that he could make a lot of money building PCs only after customers had placed orders for them. Just four months later, he renamed the company “Dell Computer Corporation” and it became so successful that in just 8 years, the company entered the Fortune 500. At age 24, Michael Dell was awarded Entrepreneur of the Year by Inc. magazine. Remembering that Dell was founded in Texas will be the key in getting this clue right.
