i think financial educatoin should be the part of c\school curriculum... Students from childhood should know how the money works and try to make money work for them else they will be in the same rat trap as in their parents are .... So School students should know about the money to make their life more comfortable....

naa...the best way to learn about money is the real life situation and hard way.Anything taught in school remains at school.Life does a good job of teaching everybody the value of money....!!!

Financial education should definitely be a part of children's education. Many young people take out loans and have credit cards that they cannot afford. It's always sad to see a young person end up over the head before they even get out in the real world. Everyone will have to deal with finances, so schools should definitely offer a required course on the topic.

hi ,i agree with you.Financial education should be part of school curruculum.Just take a look the students around us.There are so many of them who can't make good use of their money.Somet of them ask for much money from their parents but they can spend the money in a really short time.Some are better,they can make money themselves.But they don't know how to use them,either.If there a such kind of course in school,I think there will be less students who can't make the ends meet.So this kind of couse is a must .
