The show is [[Refuge in Audacity]] in its purest form.

''I Love Money'' is a [[VH-1]] reality game show, starring <s>dysfunctional fame whores</s> contestants from ''[[Flavor of Love]]'', ''[[I Love New York]]'', ''[[Rock of Love]]'', ''Real Chance of Love'', ''For the Love of Ray J'', ''Daisy of Love'' and ''Megan Wants a Millionaire'', who all immediately proceed to have sex with each other. The show is [[Refuge in Audacity]] in its purest form.

For a chance to win $250.000,- and a couple of extra hours on TV, the contestants must win a series of challenges, hosted by [[VH 1]] personality Craig J. Jackson. Much of the show's appeal is watching Jackson slowly realize he's taken a wrong turn in his career path: he visibly goes from generic TV host enthusiasm to boredom, then to abject horror, and finally (around season 2) to simply enjoying the show for what it is. By the time the season 2 finale came around, he was really getting in on all the fun.

The contestants, meanwhile, are split into two teams. They form alliances and friendships, fall in and out of love, beat each other up and partake in ''[[Fear Factor]]''-inspired challenges such as "the kiss-off", "race around a Mexican square in a rickety go-kart and eat disgusting food while the locals wave tiny flags", and "save the drowning Midget Mac doll". With each new game, contestants manage to disqualify themselves in increasingly idiotic ways: by not understanding the challenge to begin with, by injuring their opponents (or allies), or most commonly, because they're sleeping with the other team. [[So Bad It's Good]] doesn't begin to describe it.

Line 25:

* [[Devil in Plain Sight]]: Tailor Made plays this for all it's worth.

** Megan, too.

* [[Distracted By the Sexy]]: Most of the girls, but most notably Megan and Myammee, try to avoid elimination by wearing as little as possible. Megan also charmed Whiteboy to get into the Stallionaires alliance, but ended up actually liking him.

** Frank is disqualified from the butt-kissing contest when, after having his lips on 20 Pack's ass for a good ten minutes, he ''slaps it''.

* [[The Ditz]]: It takes it to whole new levels.

Line 40:

* [[Guyliner]]: 20 Pack.

* [[He's Back]]: Frank the Entertainer and Heat in Season 2. 20 Pack in Season 4{{spoiler|, albeit not for very long}}.

* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: {{spoiler|Brandi C}} hopes to make one for {{spoiler|Megan}}. [[VH 1]] screws her out of it.

* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]: 12 Pack and Heat were this during ''[[I Love New York]]'', but they had a falling out after the show. Their friendship on ''[[I Love Money]]'' is strained at best.

** Buckwild and Saaphyri became best friends during ''[[Charm School]]'', and were inseparable on ''[[I Love Money]]''.

Line 55:

** Discussed with It in the second season finale (Even the promos promoted the idea). But It proves to be just ''that'' stupid. {{spoiler|He doesn't even complete the final challenge.}}

* [[Odd Friendship]]: Tailor Made and It.

* [[Only Known By Their Nickname]]: Played straight for almost everyone (and most of the contestants refer to ''themselves'' by their nicknames), but averted for Smiley. She only goes by her real name, Leilene. Which is probably a result of ''[[Charm School]]''.

** Buckwild is referred to as "Becky Buckwild" by everyone, including Jackson and Frank.

Line 66:

* [[Smug Snake]]: Toasteee reveals herself to be one.

** Tailor Made continues to be this, and is referred to as a "snake" by his enemies.

* [[Spell My Name ~~With~~ an "S"]]: [[VH 1]] still isn't sure how to spell Toastee(e) and T(-)weed.
