We make money not art: Real-life soap opera

This is truly Big Brother gone mad. Or a real-life Sims? Strange yet I feel drawn to this dreadful Truman Show-esque weirdness.* People will live there and choose which job they want. There will even be social classes "set up".

Says Near Near Future:

Prize money will be given out bit by bit as a reward for challenges successfully
carried out, but the sum will be lost if the contestant leaves the village
voluntarily. And with no set end date, they could well find themselves living in
it forever.

What if they revolted?
