Nine and News Corp’s joint venture Your Money to close digital platform
The joint venture between News Corp and Nine – Your Money – is closing down its stand-alone digital operations, and integrating the content into News Corp platforms.
The operation’s head of digital, David Ash, left a number of weeks ago, and Mumbrella can confirm a small number of staff whose roles are specifically related to the Your Money website will be leaving the business.
Your Money launched mid way through last year
The CEO of Your Money, Kylie Merritt, told Mumbrella Ash had helped the business through its key start-up phase, but said the JV’s digital content strategy was now evolving.
This doesn’t surprise me. Money can be a really interesting topic but their TV channel is appallingly boring. The average person can’t relate to it.
Didn’t Chris Kohler leave a plum job at Domain ?
The website is awesome with great articles, but who watches the show it is incredibly boring and a waste of time. Never seen something put together so badly.
Yeah great content, Jack. This article was a standout –

Well what a surprise. Sky Business was barely adequate, but it WAS adequate.
Your Money (the channel) is diabolical.
Everything from the station colours has been wrong, wrong, wrong. Clearly nobody had the slightest idea of who the audience was supposed to be or what it might want.
Someone should look at whose been steering this ship. Blind leadership with absolute disregard for the hard working people who believed in it. Appalling.
Poor screen colour choices, snail slow banner and over-airing of property segments offset the mostly good guest appearances and panelists. Hopefully a shake-up will also bring a less rushed oratory from some presenters preoccupied with speed speech.

I have watched Trading Day Open,Live,Countdown & Close [including its predecessor] for many years.
I have found the discussions by panel guests on the share market and specific shares informative and very helpful, together with other sources, in making investment decisions [esp Your Call]
I await further information on the new digital format, but hopefully it will allow segments to be recorded, downloaded or view at a later time.
I wish all those involved in Your Money the very best for the future.
I am disappointed that the show has been canceled Australia has been a long time waiting for a broad investment program ,watching sport or I’m a survivor does nothing to enhance people investing knowledge ,for those who thought the show boring you are either savvy astute investors already or have watched for the wrong reasons .We now have to go it alone again without the advice and commentary of the learned guessed and Journalist’s such a loss.
