Why it worked
The video uses a provocative statement about making money to grab attention, combined with visually appealing and aspirational imagery. The rapid cuts and relatable (yet aspirational) settings create a sense of intrigue and encourage viewers to watch until the end.
Summary

The scenes include someone in a car, a person in a living room, a scenic view, someone on an airport tarmac, money being fed into a printer, a view from a window, and people toasting on a plane.
