The child states his age (seven), birthday (August 19), that he likes working hard, and identifies compounding interest as "the eighth wonder of the world." The clip centers on family, goals, and a short exchange about effort and accomplishment.
There's my son. Mark. Mark, what's up? Come here. Say hi to everybody.
Hi.

Seven. When's your birthday? August 19th. Look at the camera. Tell them. What is the eighth wonder of the world compounding? Interest. That's right. Do you like working hard or easy?
Hard.
Why do you like working hard?
Because. I don't know.
It makes you hard, right? It's fun. It makes you feel accomplished. It makes you feel good, right? Yeah. Does Drea like working hard or easy? Your sister. I think Drea likes it hard, too. Do you love accomplishing goals? Does it make you feel good?
