As the 20th century poet Des'ree once said: "Money don't make my world go round, I'm reaching out for a higher ground". Sadly, for the rest of us, the acquisition of money is a necessity. So this week we're back into the history books to analyse a series of money making ventures; from the Dutch Tulip craze of the 1600s to the 'Black Gold' of the Rhondda Valley and we wind the clock back to the 2000s and the infamous dot-com bubble.
