Sales and persuasion have got to be the most undervalued skills in life. That has a negative connotation to it, but it shouldn't. You can be a good salesman without being a slimeball. In fact, life is long, and it's best to never be a slimeball when you're selling.

Seriously. Unless you figure this out intuitively through social life or extra curriculars it's easy to go through the entire US education pipeline without even realizing this is something you should be thinking about.

Some parents teach their kids this. I think I first learned it from a business mentor and then Warren Buffett. So many extremely valuable skills that are missing from the US education pipeline...where do I even begin...

Ha, yeah it is pretty atrocious. Problems significantly outside my sphere of influence for the time being. I'm really interested in niche private schools that address this. I have a feeling they will play a meaningful role in the way kids grow up in 10-20 years.
