Happy Memorial Day! You all spending some quality time w/ the friends and fam? Well, if not (or if you're bored and/or just sneaking away to get your finance on) here's a freakin' BRILLIANT video courtesy of ABC's upcoming 1 hour special - "Un-Broke" (Friday, May 29th @ 9pm EST):
Un-Broke: The Seth Green Cribs Edition - watch more funny videos
Via ABC's site: "Schools teach us almost everything, but not "Money 101." For the basics on finance, turn to UN-BROKE: What You Need to Know About Money. It's an unconventional look at the fundamentals of everyday finance with all the facts about credit cards, mortgages, stocks and bonds, investing and 401(k)'s, in a fresh new format combining information and humor."Hell yeah! You gotta love that. About time people realize mixing entertainment w/ financial education is a smart move ;) Happy Holiday everybody, God bless. (Big thx to Mrs Micah for finding this gem!)

I love it! Seth Green is hysterical, but I kinda wonder if that's his real place. If it is, I'm impressed.
omgoodness...i love it!!!! i will definitely be watching this friday. thanks for posting this...it just reminded me that my 2bd 2.5 bath townhouse is big enough for me and my son.
LMAO this is hilarious I posted it on FB, we gotta spread the word about this show but at the same time some may look at it as "making fun of livin modest" because we all know Seth ain't livin' like this at all.
Yeah, the whole concept is brilliant if you ask me. Getting celebs to help out with Money 101 - perfect! Especially for the younger crowd out there who look up to some of these guys. And the funnier it comes across, the more people tend to stick around, so MAD PROPS ABC for pimping this $ stuff out ;)
"straight filled with hose"...OMG, I died. and then i came back to life to love Seth Green even more than I already did.
That was so funny! Thanks for sharing that J! I had no idea that there was anything like that on TV. I agree with you about needing some of these celebrities that get so many people trying to be like them, to come out and do something about finance.
That .. That was Hilarious! I had never heard of Seth Green before this, but he did a fantastic job of getting the message across. I hope ABC puts this on their website for those who don't have cable and don't get ABC with rabbit ears. :)
I am definitely asking my dad to tape this for me! I'll have to find a time to show it to my students next year. I showed some of my seniors PBS's Secret History of the Credit Card, which provoked some good discussion, but I think this would be wayyyy more engaging.
They totally don't get why someone who has a job would still be driving a ten year old Ford, and I spent a long time trying to explain to one of my seniors that buying the car she suggested, with a msrp greater than my annual gross salary, would be a really bad idea regardless of whether I could make the payments. Anything to help them make sane decisions once they get out on their own is a good thing.
Thank God that ABC is airing something like this, it'll be like a breathe of fresh air and hopefully wake some people up. As an aside, Seth Green is hilarious! "Where my hose at?"
That is F.U.N.N.Y.!!!!!!!!!!! Loved it! Seth Green is the Bomb! Thanks for keepin' it real!
Aw man! Seth should have taken a moment to show off his fly (yes, I said fly) Cricket Wireless pay-as-you-go phone. Keeping the price of the celly low is important to keep the bling where it belongs - the b.a.n.k.
Classic skit. It does make you wonder if it's his? Doubt it though.
I bet it was like his place before "making it" and then he bought it to keep as a bachelor pad ;) but who knows, maybe he's just really that financially savvy?!
