A quick look at a typical week on Marketplace Morning Report takes you behind the scenes of business unusual. Recently, we heard a series about people who've never made money on the up and up, and commentary from Cash Peters, known for his comedic flair, about how hard it is to retain the trademark humor when the world's not in a laughing mood.

Naturally, you'll hear the early reports from London and Tokyo, as well as the latest rumors about interest rates. And, you'll hear unusual stories that shed new light on the business of business.

"Minimum Wage"
On Marketplace Morning Report, we bring you the business news behind the headlines. Americans have long held that hard work is the key to success—or, at least, to survival. But many full-time workers—at the low end of the wage scale—can barely afford to meet their basic needs. In our series on low wage work, we looked at the politics of living wage campaigns, and the ways families struggle to cover food, shelter and child care needs on less than ten dollars an hour.

We're here every morning with business stories with background—and financial news that's not just for CEOs. Please provide this station with the background it needs to support its programming: things like your name and address and how much you'd like to pledge. Here's how you do it: by listening to the Marketplace Morning Report!

In the meantime, please make your contribution today!
