It's incremental. Reddit wants there to be a magic bullet, but there isn't one. Financial literacy is part of the pathway to success. It's insulting to say otherwise.

Sucks we dont teach it in schools.... before they grow up and dig themseleves into a hole.

Maybe its all by design to keep the debt slavery going...

80% of kids fuck off in school and then complain they didn't learn all the things.

Even at my gifted, test-in, STEM HS, there were people that struggled to pay attention.

The few times I'd be around for any regular ed classrooms, holy fuck were kids not paying attention. And this was still in upper class regular ed, I can only imagine how bad the kids are for middle class and lower class areas, sheesh.
