The average person is graduating high school and moving onto the next stage of their life without having an adequate education concerning the handling of their finances. A financially literate society is vital for individual success and is vital to the economy as a whole. Students should be required to take a course covering topics such as investing, budgeting, taking out a mortgage, saving for retirement and more. I believe steps need to be taken in order to make this curriculum mandatory in all high schools across the country as it will benefit society as a whole.
