Description:
In this unique audio presentation stamped with the trademark cleverness that has made his public radio show "Marketplace" such a success, David Brancaccio sets out on a trip across America with one question in mind: What would you do if you had $20,000? With money and values on the brain, he travels across the country exploring a variety of options -- shopping at the Mall of America; gambling in Las Vegas; investing on Wall Street; starting up a business in Pasadena, California; buying a home in Levittown, New York; putting the money away for retirement in Tucson, Arizona. Along the way, he meets a varied cast of characters with thoughts on money entirely their own, from a carefree drifter named Wayne to buttoned-down Wall Street investors. The result is an irreverent but insightful jaunt that explores Americans and one of their most prized possessions: their money.
