Summary

In this Secret Millionaires Club episode, chasing a big goal, the club learns to protect and grow the money they earn — saving it, and letting a bank help it grow — instead of spending it all at once. 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.
