imo, we should probably raise the legal age of adulthood.
> They are fully capable of making informed financial decisions.
Yet so many of them obviously are not able.
- smileysteve 8y agoThere are plenty of older people who don't understand compound interest or progressive tax rates. Imo, consider the opposite, 2 years being an adult in the military or apprenticing at a job before college could provide the experience that sheltered children need.

Just my personal opinion, but 20 year olds aren't really adults either. I think we need another legal category that is more than a minor but less than an adult to cover ages approximately 18-24.
