Chasing The Green is a true story of two brothers, Adam and Ross, who became millionaires during the 1990s. As sellers of electronic terminals (for credit card transactions), they were confident and bold, and thus ignored warnings by the government to 'respond' to numerous complaints regarding their practices. Ultimately, they were nearly destroyed by the FTC, who sought to demolish their company at the behest of their competitors.

Yet Adam, the cautious brother, tries to reconcile the crisis with conflicts in his own relationships, making him wonder where his passions truly lie.
