Money Moron
Money morons are a leading cause of ruined relationships. As such, financial advisor Gail Vaz-Oxlade, in an amalgam of what she did for couples of various stripes in Til Debt Do U$ Part (2005) and for divas and divos in Prince$$ (2010), undertakes an intervention on behalf one of half of a couple who believes the other half of that couple is leading them into financial ruin which may in turn result in the imminent break-up of the relationship. Gail reviews the money management within the household to see what needs to be done to fix the financial problem. Beyond the keeping of a financial diary, Gail issues a series of tasks, which, depending upon their completion to Gail's satisfaction, will lead to Gail giving them up to $10,000 to help them get back on their financial way at the end of her time with them. However, Gail often finds that the story is not as lopsided as it is initially presented to be to her by the intervening one of the couple, that person who is often as much at fault if not more so in the financial problems.

Episode 1
Dan & Alison
22 mins
Alison calls in Gail to deal with the money management issues of her husband, Dan. Dan, who has always enjoyed the finer things in life and who likes to be generous to friends which often manifests itself in picking up the check in frequent meals out, lost his $80,000 per annum job shortly before he and Alison got married - something he postponed telling her in his want for her to have the wedding she wanted - that job which was replaced by a $30,000 per annum one. Alison, who has yet to start her teaching career, got pregnant shortly thereafter, she now six months into the pregnancy. Even with those added expenses and less income, Dan's spending did not change, the biggest bone of contention being a luxury sedan which Dan unilaterally purchased and that Alison does not think they can afford. They currently live with Dan's mother in her house rent free until they get back on their feet, this living arrangement which further places a strain on their young marriage. Alison is afraid that Dan, who has always been the reassuring one in their relationship, may talk a good talk but not do anything in a concrete fashion to deal with their financial problems. Beyond the spending diary which they are to keep, Gail wants Dan to sell the car, even if it means taking a loss on it. She also gives them $200 to carve out a small space in his mother's house for them including the baby, something which Alison was initially reluctant to do if only in making the living arrangement feel more permanent than she wanted. And she wants them to prepare a five year budget so that they will be on the same page for their medium term life goals.
