What do you think?  Always talking about how savings are good, production vs consumption (the lemonade stall), curbing consumption to save, anti- tax and such...

The kid saves up whathe spends, curbs his consumption, starts producing, so he can save up to invest in something he enjoys later on.

It might just be that I've gotten ALOT more into Austrian economics since the last time I saw this (8 months or so) but it seems like that to me.

This one too, although I'm not entirely sure.

Good, but not necessarily "Austrian". When I was a kid, it was just called "thriftiness", and "common sense".
