On the show, hecoaches people who have jobs, maybe even high-paying jobs, but are nevertheless in debt or living hand-to-mouth. Hisblunt take on their situations? They're broke because they want to be. They all say they want stability, savings,and financial freedom, but their actions too often contradict their words.
