In this program, Guadeloupeans, Senegalese, and Quebecois talk about how they spend their money—and what they might do if they ever win a fortune! The video also shows how to pay a hotel bill and how to haggle over a purchase. In addition, Senegalese artisans in Dakar who turn junk into fashionable briefcases and cloth scraps into keepsake quilts are profiled, and a sugarcane plantation on Guadeloupe’s island of Grande-Terre is spotlighted. A BBC Production. A part of the series The French Experience, Series 2. (French with English subtitles, 14 minutes)
