NEW YORK - Suze Orman will host a new primetime series on OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network, starting this fall, the network said Thursday.

The show has the working title Money Class and was created by financial advisor and TV personality Orman.

It will feature Orman as she helps people in difficult financial situations and "sets attainable goals and tasks them with specific challenges to impart the ability to make responsible and well-informed decisions," the network said.

“Suze Orman is the rock star of personal finance, and her straight-forward advice will help people that are in need of a financial wake-up call,” said Lisa Erspamer, chief creative officer of OWN.

Said Orman: "Nothing can teach you more about who you really are than your money."
