YFE to Offer Secret Millionaires Club

LOS ANGELES: A Squared Entertainment (A2) and Your Family Entertainment (YFE) are to present 26 new episodes of the animated series Secret Millionaires Club at MIPCOM.

Secret Millionaires Club follows a group of kids from around the world as they embark on business adventures under the mentorship of a wise local investor. The half-hour episodes feature celebrity guest appearances from Jay-Z, Shaquille O’Neal, Serena Williams and more, and the curriculum for the series was developed by top academics and financial expert Warren Buffett. The series is produced by A2 and Xing Xing Digital animation studio and is sold internationally by YFE. The first episodes have been sold to The Hub for the U.S. market.

“These shows are not meant to teach kids how to read a balance sheet,” said Andy Heyward, co-president of A2. “First and foremost, these are fun stories that will engage and entertain kids with exciting business-related adventures. Secret Millionaires Club enriches young minds with simple lessons that will help them be more successful in their own lives later on.”

“Especially today, it is important that future generations learn about money matters early, in a playful way. The quintessential message of this show is: ‘The best investment you can make is the investment in yourself. The more you learn the more you’ll earn,’ (Warren Buffett),” commented Stefan Piëch, the CEO of YFE.
