Description

Love Gov is the story of an independent, fun-loving, young woman, Alexis, and her boyfriend, Scott "Gov" Govinsky, who is always there to help. Always.

In this episode: Alexis wants to buy a home. Is "Gov" going to help? Housing is expensive, but not expensive enough!
Each of the Love Gov series’ five episodes follows Alexis’s relationship with “Gov” as his intrusions and interventions wreak (comic) havoc on her life, professionally, financially, and socially. “Gov” inadvertently creates excessive student loan debt, expensive housing, underemployment, inadequate and expensive healthcare, and commits personal privacy violations. Alexis’s loyal friend Libby tries to help her see “Gov” for what he really is — a menace. But will Alexis come to her senses in time? Tune in to find out!
The Love Gov video series also connects with the MyGovCost mobile app, that enables users to estimate their lifetime federal tax liability and amounts that users would have earned had their federal taxes been instead privately invested.
