Plot summary
Ryan Turner is a broker in New York City whose girlfriend, Cindy Styne, writes an advice column for a small newspaper edited by Page Henson. Donald Simpson, owner of a large publishing company, tells Ryan on the golf course about a merger with a drug corporation, and Ryan passes the tip to his clients, who invest heavily. Simpson then says the merger is off; Ryan loses most of his own money and much of his clients'. Simpson admits he lied to avenge Ryan's affair with his wife, Ryan's license is revoked, and no other brokerage will hire him. He moves in with Cindy, who leaves for Brazil with a diamond mine owner and tells him the rent is due. When Page warns that no column means no checks, Ryan takes over the column in Cindy's name.
