The reality show "Maxed out" is on the style network right now. People who are drowning in debt are given a financial coach to really "see" their money problems then to learn to overcome them.
This particular couple spends $16,000 a year/ $1300 a month in car expenses driving back and forth from suburbs to work. The couples dream was to live in the city, and were shown that they can get an apt in the city for $1300 a month right now. But they are also taught to live more within their means.
The show takes somewhat extreme people, but kind of average people who have just made normal typical mistakes. Car leases, confusing home business expenses with personal expenses, weird investments, ect.
I just think its fascinating where, how other people choose to spend their money. I have no idea why, lol. No one else (besides this board) seems interested in money habits of other people.
The show is on a marathon all day until 4pm.
