Require Students In High School To Take A Financial Literacy Class

The Issue

Student in high school do not require enough education on financial literacy which can cause many issues in their future. Being financially illiterate will help people as many are unaware of how to do a lot of things that are essential to maintain a stable lifestyle.

After high school, many adults are not financially illiterate which can cause many issues in the long run such as poor credit, bankruptcy, housing foreclosure, increase in debt, issues with the IRS, unemployment, and much more.

There has been many studies to support this such as Financial Literacy Crisis In America

This study shows that “88% of U.S. adults said high school did not leave them “fully-prepared” for how to handle money in the real world.”

If we want a better future for America, change starts now!
