Summary

In this Secret Millionaires Club episode, a music venture pushes the club to negotiate a deal, and they learn that a fair agreement — one that works for both the buyer and the seller — is what keeps a business honest and lasting. 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.
