Probably for the best for him to hit rock bottom and get reminded about a few things. Though I have to wonder what kind of crazy transportation he was planning on that he needed 100,000 for .

While Lucy wasn't able to get all that rent money at least she gained something important here. It's going to be a long road, but steps have been taken to reconciling with her father. He definitely screwed up and did things wrong, but at least she doesn't have to forget he ever existed. I'm sure if the guy managed to rise himself up to being rich once he can at least be solid and survive. This time will probably remember what's actually important though.

While not a tough group Lucy did a nice job of crushing a dark guild on her own. She has quite the solid group of spirits and didn't even need Loke to step in. Great finishing move though .

Seems like we're finally moving into the next arc.

Spoiler for Ep51:

Though it's not clear exactly what happened, I figure he lost everything due to instigating the guild war with what was (under the circumstances,) pretty close to a kidnapping request. Since it turned into a huge debacle that got Phantom Lord disbanded, his role couldn't be overlooked. As such he got hit with fines and legal fees that amounted to everything he owned.

By the convention that fictional currency in a Japanese series = yen, the 100,000 jewel he asked for works out to somewhere around $1000 US dollars give or take depending on the current exchange rate. So he was probably planning on buying a first class train ticket, or renting one of the cars. Or rather it'd been so long since he traveled anything but the very best, that'd he'd probably forgotten what more usual prices are.
