My Take
Funny, engaging, but pretty limited information. Would work great as an introduction or "into" activity for personal finance. I rather use moneywiseteen.org for high school 12th graders.
How I Use It
These videos are hilarious! They would be great for middle school; don't know how 12th graders taking Economics would react to them. They seem pretty basic.

Overall this project is quite good as a learning tool the teacher can pick and choose what videos and resources they want to use based on what they are teaching in economics or related fields. There are plenty of good resources to use for a variety of grade level and cognitive ability. I would recommend you take a close look at this product.
