How do I get our money tree to look or grow more like the ones you see when you search for them?

I assume it needs pruned in some particular way. Right now the one stalk is growing pretty good, but it seems like it'll keep growing until it hits the ceiling.

I think it needs cut below the top four shoots, to make it grow two stems maybe, or be more bushy?

Any tips, insight, links, whatever is much appreciated.

Thank you for all the info. I will be upgrading the lights.

Is the light I have good for anything or just trash?

Oh, I think that light is still good. I used one like it for years, and only swapped to a different one when my roommate took it when we graduated uni. I got a different, cheaper light that crapped out a year later. Then I learned that spending over $150 gets you a light that won't burn out as quick from daily use.
