Clink! Clink! Clink!

The sound of cold hard cash.

Chrysalis cackled as she turned the crank of the machine, watching as golden coins plopped out into a bucket.

"Oh, ho ho!" she squealed as the bucket began to overflow. She shoved a new collection basket under the machine while she inserted another sheet of gold into the apparatus.

"A money making we go! A money making we go!"

"I have no idea what this is supposed to teach her?!" Twilight exclaimed as their niece, Princess Radiance, pushed a bucket full of counterfeit bits over to a corner where another dozen of them rested.

"Work ethic, dear. Work ethic. Oh, and we get a little cha ching, too!"

"But we're royalty! We can take as much as we want from the royal vaults!"

"Work ethic, darling, work ethic."
