    I don’t disagree but money feels less real (for the majority of folks) at 15 vs 20. Assuming you’re living with family at 15 and not at 20. I had move out when I was 18 and learned most of the lessons I’d teach the hard way. Granted I’d learned plenty of stuff from my parents actions prior and having to help them with bills growing up.

      Should be the last year that the vast majority of kids attend. College feels like it’s not what everyone does.

        I highly doubt most high school seniors would pay much attention to a class about math and personal responsibility.

          That is correct, but the same crowd is unlikely to pay attention in any other class either. They were given the opportunity to learn and if they choose to not pay attention that is their choice.

        Yeah thats fair. Also why I said I’d do it at a CC for cheap so anyone in that community could take at least that class.
