Everybody needs money. That's why they call it money.

From full global headquarters, this is Motley Fool Money.

I'm Chris Ellen joining me in studio from Motley Fool Hidden Jam Seth Jason from Motley Fool Income Investor James Early.

And for a million-dollar portfolio, Ron Gross-Gentleman, it is our year-end special. It is our 2012 preview.

All show-long, we're previewing 2012. After this, we don't need to do any more shows for 2012.

How much does this show cost right now? Is this free? This is at least $799. Can you believe it?

So we are going to talk stocks. We're going to talk about the big company battles heading into 2012.

But we are going to start with what longtime listeners know I have identified as the business story of 2011.

And that is, of course, tang. The fact that the tang became a billion-dollar brand.

And once again, we got some tang sent to us from one of our listeners.

It's like a billion in ten dollars, thanks to listeners buying.

Yeah, that's a quarter of the tang economy.

Thank you to Brenda Edwards, a longtime listener who lives in Brazil.

She sent us some passion fruit tang and some cashew tang.

Which is the, it's not, I'm, I'm, which color is the cashew?

It's like an oiled yellow one, I'm the sir.

Guessing the cashew is the lighter one.

So the light yellow one is the cashew one. Let's, let's just go ahead.

Here we go.

We need to do a swirling brand.

Someone has a nut allergy, I hope.

I hope not.
