student loans are a hit!

[Ooloo]

I took home-ec in 7th grade and it was like how to sew and make pies and stuff, alongside a class called technology which was how to make a shitty CD rack for fathers day or something. Then in highschool I had to take general economics and also a class called participation in government.

I don't really remember what I learned in either of them cause I was mostly just obsessed with my girlfriend liking me in highschool.

I definitely do not remember anything about tax returns, tax forms, what taxes really even are, mortgages, credit, loans, insurance or general finance. I did get a fairly good public education in math, science, history and music though which isn't nothing. Of course this was in the late 90s, can't speak to what it's like today cause I don't have kids.
