Spend Wisely with Your Video Daily Double


 Welcome back, educationeers! It's time for the next-to-last installment in our sales film summer series of Video Daily Doubles. Believe it or not, this is a good thing for the Cap'n, because of all the short films from yesteryear, sales films are actually the hardest to find. There's no way to do a generic search for them, and many of the ones collected on DVDs aren't available online. While looking for them, I've found a dozen or so great "social engineering" shorts for this fall, but until I can locate a better resource for sales films, we may have hit out limit just in time.

 Both of today's films are about buying... well, anything. That's right, I found sales films that encourage buying... period. Spend that money!

---

 Our first film, It's Everbody's Business, uses anthropomorphized money (among other things) to explain why spending as much as humanly possible is a good thing, especially for avoiding the Tax Monster.


Our second film, The Wise Use of Credit, wants you to curtail some of that reckless activity, but not that much. I mean, it is hosted by a guy named "Mr. Money" after all.


 Tune in next week when we return to the sales films that got this summer started: cars!
