Topic	Should basic personal finance be part of high school curriculum?
KILBOTz 12/19/18 10:24:07 PM #46:	I was actually surprised how few schools did this. We had an elective class in middle school and high school that was called "It's your future". You would learn basic personal finance (how to balance a checkbook, how to make a budget, how to fill out a tax form), basic career type stuff (how to fill out an application, a resume and write a cover letter). It also taught some really basic household maintenance (how to locate and turn off a water main, how to locate and change a furnace filter, the fact you need to replace smoke detector batteries, etc.) and other basic tips on how to be an adult. --- https://imgur.com/O3syCWD https://imgur.com/k3YiBdG <cite>KILBOTz posted [p:914421262] in Should bas...
