The premise of Magoo Saves the Bank without spoilers.
Near‑sighted Mr. Magoo is heading to the bank to make a deposit, but he accidentally boards a bus headed for a horse‑race track.

When the track finally ejects him, he departs with a bag of winnings, proudly believing the profit came from compound‑interest growth.
