Agree with this x1000. Really regret growing up clueless regarding finances. We were dirt poor and my parents weren't really clued in either. If schools could teach proper finances they could literally change the trajectory of kids' lives.

I've been saying this for years! They don't teach things that help people! Nothing about saving, investments, interest, just simple stuff like budgeting a household, using common sense. A lot of kids need help with that because parents don't do it!

Yes. Financial literacy and introductory economics is more important to teach high school students than Trigonometry & Calculus!

Same here. My wife (Courtney) and I talk about it all the time. We will definitely pass along the knowledge base to our children. Hopefully - we will also teach them how to make great decisions according to that knowledge base.
