I'm on Season 6 right now, and Buffy is having financial trouble. I was wondering, though, why doesn't she get a salary for being the slayer? Giles gets one for being a watcher, so she definitely should get a salary! Also, you'd think Giles would help her finish college or her dad's child support for Dawn and financial help from him would be enough to support them. She should also have insurance for the house, so she shouldn't have to pay much out of pocket when things get messed up. I'm pretty sure insurance covers damages that occur when somebody breaks into your house. Also, Giles was unemployed for a long time and did fine, but Buffy is somehow swimming in debt shortly after her mom's death? Ooookay. I like the show a lot, but season 5 and 6 haven't been my favorites. The show should be an escape, but instead they want to bog it down with health problems and financial troubles, none of which are enjoyable to watch. Also, Riley and Dawn are so annoying. Glad at least Riley is gone for now!
