Have a Grade 10, 11 and 12 core course to teach you just the basics. Saving, taxes, intro investing, mortgages, renting, expenses etc.

Anyhow, I'm doing that whole yelling at clouds thing. haha. I'll exit now.

I still don't think this is true. People say it all the time but kids aren't suddenly going to start caring because its being taught it school. Seems very hindsighty to me.
