Jimmy Barnes arrives from Europe to be educated by his multi-millionaire uncle, Edward J. Barnes and in five years the extravagant escapes of Jimmy, now a lawyer, are the talk of San Francisco. Linda Gray is a mouse-like secretary to the elder Barnes who has fallen in love with Jimmy, but he favors actress Constance "Connie" Marlowe. Mr. Barnes dies and leaves everything to Linda but he has urged his partner, Alexander Duncan, to plan things so that Jimmy and Linda will get married. Coached by Duncan, Linda accepts the inheritance and announces that she is departing for New York on a wild spending spree. He tells Jimmy that the will can be broken but only after many months and he suggests that Jimmy follow Linda and curb her spending or there won't be any money left. In New York, Linda hires Jimmy as her private secretary. Connie also arrives in New York, as does the ingenious Baron Rene de Montigny with the intention of marrying the wealthy Miss Gray.

When a wealthy American industrialist dies suddenly, his rakish nephew "Jimmy" (Francis Lederer) expects to inherit a substantial chunk of his late uncle's $4m fortune. It turns out, though, that he leaves him just $1, with most of the rest going to his loyal secretary "Linda Gray" (Madeleine Carroll). She is a little upset by this arrangement but together with his old business partner "Duncan" (Charles Waldron) decides that young "Jimmy" needs a lesson in hard knocks to make him grow up - so she takes the money and he has to become her assistant on the princely sum of $75 per week. She goes off on a spending spree and "Duncan" warns "Jimmy" that he had better pursue her and try to dissuade her from running through all the money before he has a chance to contest the will. What now ensues is quite a fun cat and mouse game, with the hapless "Jimmy" being quite effectively manipulated. Misha Auer is also on entertaining form as her pursuing admirer the "Baron Rene", and the comedic elements of this rather obvious, but still amusing, love triangle all play out quite amiably in this well paced drama. It's a fine example of a solid cast with some solid writing that still manages to raise the odd smile.
