I whole heartedly agree. But people have finite teen years, and finite attention.
Many simply aren't interested and seem to resent abstract mathematical education. And simultaneously desire better accountancy skills. This would be a way to achieve that
- plonk 4y agoWhat I'd have loved to be taught is basic financial skills, as you said. But you need to cram that into an already crammed schedule that overworks children for diminishing returns (I found school miserable) and the math taught in my (first-world, very rich) country is already too basic IMO. Maybe as a one-hour-a-week high school course. The "economics" taught there were so basic and incomplete as to be useless.
