Kids + Money In Los Angeles

A short film called Kids + Money: A portrait of teenagers in Los Angeles which is part of the New York Times shorts series. Well worth the view (about 15 minute video)

I'm not terribly surprised, but I doubt if this is really a complete representation of kids and their money attitudes. All of the kids seems like they have the potential to set aside unrealistic notions about spending. That is hopeful. Even those whose families are now in tight circumstances appeared to have so much stuff accumulated.
