1979: What would kids do if they were RICH? | Junior That’s Life | Voice of the People | BBC Archive

How much money do you need to be rich? For these 1970s schoolchildren, to be rich can mean having £14 or £1,000,000,000. What would they do if they were rich? What would they buy? Is being rich a good thing? Can you be rich AND English? As luck would have it, one of the children interviewed in this report for Junior That’s Life has first hand experience of being rich - she has “ten million dollars hundred“ in her piggy bank - so she is able to describe in great detail what daily life is like for the spectacularly wealthy. Eye-opening stuff. This clip is from Junior That’s Life, originally broadcast 1 September, 1979.
