Talks to Barbara about money (5)
I believe the answer is:
blabs
'talks' is the definition.
('blab' can be a synonym of 'talk')
'barbara about money' is the wordplay.
'barbara' becomes 'babs' (I've seen this before).
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'money' becomes 'l' (L can mean 'pounds').
'babs' enclosing 'l' is 'BLABS'.
'to' acts as a link.
