Vice-Admiral (retired) Brien Michael Money (11 September, 1880 – 4 April, 1939) was an officer of the Royal Navy during the First World War.
Life & Career
Money was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant on 15 February, 1901.[1]
I 1904, Money collided with T.B. 82 while in command of her sister, T.B. 86. This misadventure drew Their Lordships' severe displeasure.[2]
In 1909, Money was thanked for the zeal he demonstrated in inventing an "air blast mechanism" which was not adopted.[3]
Money was promoted to the rank of Commander on 31 December, 1912.[4]
Great War
Money was appointed in command of the destroyer Acheron of the First Destroyer Flotilla on 31 March, 1914. He remained in her until being appointed to the flotilla leader Botha on 26 January, 1916. On 8 June, he was appointed in temporary command of Fearless. This sequence kept him from being at the Battle of Jutland, which is unfortunate, as his experience is emphatically the sort that would have been helpful.[5]
Money was promoted to the rank of Captain on 31 December, 1917.[6]
He was made captain of the flotilla leader Seymour in January, 1918 and served as Captain (D) of the Eleventh Destroyer Flotilla through the German High Sea Fleet's surrender in November, 1918.

He would remain in the Navy after the war and was appointed Captain of the light cruiser Concord for fifteen months, starting in June, 1921. After an interlude, this was followed by a stint in command of the Eclipse Class second class protected cruiser Dido from early 1923 to mid 1924.
In May 1924, Money was appointed as Director of Torpedoes and Mining (Royal Navy). Money would serve in the role until he was appointed as commander of Eagle, between 1 October 1926 and 1 June 1928.[7]
