"Donald" in the guise of a stereotypically Scottish hoarder tries to explain to nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie the evolution of money and the basics of economics. Surrounded by piles of gold and banknotes, he tries to inspire the youngsters - armed with $1.95 in their piggy bank - to use their cash wisely whilst also explaining the origins of some of the language: "2 bits"; "salary"; "cough up" etc. It's largely set to rhyme and fairly unashamedly extols the values of capitalism - money must, of course, "circulate". It's a carton equivalent of a "Ladybird" book that goes on too long, but is still quite good fun.
