Max's Money Adventure was designed to teach kids the meaning and value of money. Cash machines don't just cough up money to just anyone who asks! If you put money into a savings account, interest will be paid on it, but you have to earn some money first. Credit cards are great, but eventually you have to pay them off. You can write a cheque only if you have money in a bank account. Bill Nye pulls up to Max's lemonade stand in a cool convertible and explains how he invested his money. Max learns that he needs to spend some of his earnings, save some and invest some. Eventually he is able to buy the skates he wanted, but former Olympic skater, Nancy Kerrigan can still skate rings around him!
