The last time we heard about Adam Robinson, Oxford Law and Wharton graduate and co-founder of the Princeton Review, he was suing his ex-girlfriend and alleged psychic Laura Day for swindling him out of millions. At the time he alleged that Day took advantage of a "psychological infirmity" he had "in handling his personal finances." And now he is backing up that claim by requesting a judge appoint a guardian to watch over him in his suit.
According to Robinson's lawyer, the SAT prep king has a "long and ruinous history of making utterly irrational and incomprehensible decisions concerning his finances" (join the club, we say). Though guardians are generally appointed only for those who are mentally incompetent, Robinson's lawyer argues they can also be appointed for those who need help, and that his client really needs help.
This is a man, after all, who allegedly let his girlfriend persuade him to sign over his royalties to her and her son and who also, allegedly, wrote her books for her without asking for a cut. Robinson is the author in his own name of such celebrated tomes as "What Smart Students Should Know."
Day, meanwhile, continues to push her take on old "psychic" standards to the public and celebrities at large. According to her website Brad Pitt believes in her and no less than the co-discoverer of DNA's double helix structure, James Watson, gave her a pullquote.
