- Genre

- Synopsis
- Scrooge is upset that the money level in the Money Bin is slowly declining from 99 feet. He loans Donald $50 to find an investment that will bring in enough money to raise the money level. Donald spends the $50 at an auction on a trunk that is full of Easter Island figurines. The Junior Woodchuck's manual says that natives of Christmas Island think the figures bring good luck, so Donald and the nephews hitch a ride on Scrooge's plane to Christmas Island. They set up a trade in figurines from Christmas Island to Easter Island and vice versa and Scrooge makes enough money to enjoy life again.
