[QUOTE="HoLeChit, post: 2714365, member: 35036"] I only graduated from school 7 years ago. When I was a junior I took a personal finance class. It was a joke, just an optional class, and the only thing they taught was how to balance a checkbook and using a calculator and making a budget. Schools don't make it as big of a deal as they need to, and I would love it if they made more of a series of classes, just to introduce the ideas of investing, budgeting, interest, bank accounts, real life applications of money and how it impacts people and the economy. These things were never even mentioned, and I had to learn about them after school on my own. They are things that fascinate me and are great things to know, but are ignored in school. [/QUOTE]
