    I've been watching a lot of ducktales on youtube this week. I am not watching it just for nostalgic reasons, but in some episodes, there are some nuggets of wisdom on how to amass wealth. Scrooge has so many characteristics of a true entrepreneur, a reflection of Andrew Carnegie. Many episodes are about how can Scrooge get wealthy while taking his nephews on adventures. A cartoon that seems so innocent is pretty educational when it comes to finance. He travels to places like Klondike, Malaysia, Tralala, etc.

    Here are some written lessons from scrooge:

    The episodes are always about wealth, so a few of them, they use real economic principles. Give ducktales a chance if you have never seen it.

    Like Scrooge always says, "G-G-G-G-G-Gold!!!!!!"
