Summary
In this Secret Millionaires Club episode, the club helps rescue a struggling pet business and discovers that a business can create good for its whole community — benefits that reach beyond just the owner's profit. A ~22-minute animated story that makes a financial-literacy idea easy to drop into a social studies or economics lesson — with investor Warren Buffett as the kids' mentor.
