Feb. 23, 2010 — -- Our schools teach everything from wood shop to auto mechanics, but don't teach Money 101 -- how to keep what you earn, save or invest.

Mellody Hobson, a financial contributor to "Good Morning America" and president of Ariel Investments, wants to change that with the ABC show "Un-Broke."

And stars Will Smith, Seth Green, Rosario Dawson, Christian Slater, Antonio Banderas, Marisa Tomei, Oscar the Grouch, the E*Trade babies, Cedric the Entertainer, the Jonas Brothers and Samuel L. Jackson are here to help.

You can download the whole show -- or just the segments you need to see. Or order a DVD for the cost of duplicating and shipping it to you.
