An only child in a typical middle-American family, T is unusual only in his interest in, and talent for, making money. As his peers go through teen crises, T accumulates, and turns himself into a businessman. But T's material life begins to change after he adopts a dog, meets a girl, and takes his mother in after she splits up with his father.
