CBS SUNDAY MORNING digs into the world of money: the various ways people are generating income; how that income is spent; how automation is changing the workplace; and much more in the annual "Money Issue" to be broadcast Sunday, April 9 (9:00 AM ET) on the CBS Television Network.

CBS News financial contributor Mellody Hobson anchors this special edition of CBS SUNDAY MORNING, which will feature John Blackstone's profile of actress Jaclyn Smith, who has parlayed her stardom on the TV series "Charlie's Angels" into being the head of a major company specializing in fashion, home goods, skin care, wigs and fabrics.

David Pogue reports on how automation is affecting the workplace today and jobs of the future. Tracy Smith examines the business of store returns and how a company's return policy says a lot about what they think of themselves and their customers. Barry Petersen looks into how Jukin Media is generating revenue by licensing video clips that have gone viral, such as "Chewbacca Mom" and the "Pizza Rat." Anna Werner explores the world of airline travel points. And Jim Axelrod visits the Brooklyn Navy Yard, which partly has been turned into a HUB for innovation.

Contributor Maria Hinojosa reports on the importance of the neighborhood bodega and how those businesses are changing with the times. Susan Spencer reports on three unlikely success stories: a man who built a multimillion dollar EMPIRE on what he calls the first toy "putty" for adults; a woman who makes thousands of dollars selling used clothing; and an entrepreneur whose new dating app matches users based not on things they like in common, but on the things they hate in life.

Sean Reynolds looks at a law in Wisconsin and New Jersey that prohibits people from making cookies at home and selling them for a profit. Seth Doane explores businesses in Sardinia that are sharing goods and services and paying for them using a virtual currency called Sardex. And Mellody Hobson will weigh in on the increasing and troubling amount of debt carried by Americans today.

CBS SUNDAY MORNING is broadcast Sundays (9:00-10:30 AM ET) on the CBS Television Network. Rand Morrison is the executive producer.
