Karate Kid (1984) - Mrs. Larusso makes what I think is the most disastrous personal financial decision in movie history that has nothing to do with the plot.

She moves Daniel and herself from New Jersey all the way to California to work in computers. In the early 80's. In California.

Yet when she gets there she gives it up to work at a Chinese restaurant: About 23 minutes in "...and the benefits, I could never get them working in computers".

Any other better examples?
