[QUOTE="Average at Best, post: 333749, member: 14548"] I think that the saver method should be taught in high school. Honestly, when I went to high school I learned vector calculus and the pythagorean theorem. Do you know how many times I used those in the real world? You can guess. They should teach how to balance a checkbook, how to set up a monthly budget, how interest is calculated on credit cards (i.e. the REAL cost of credit card debt), etc. That would be useful. Consider, you set an 18 year old loose on the world with no practical financial knowledge, they are only being set up for ruin (or years of debt). [/QUOTE]
