The truth is that from a purely secular perspective: The majority of material taught in school will do NOTHING for 95% (probably closer to 99%) of students.
NOTHING
Secular Studies SHOULD consist of FINANCIAL EDUCATION which is sorely lacking in ALL communities.
The Government does not want the average person to have this knowledge, so they teach all sorts of STUPIDITY instead.
Take this lesson from someone who has learnt the hard way!!
I wish i opened 5 credit card accounts when i was 18. All the hard inquiries would be gone by now and i would AWESOME credit now.
I would be able to leverage high credit limits, and i would a millionaire by now.
And there is A LOT more FINANCIAL EDUCATION that ACTUALLY will help people in Life!
Like, how to be successful in life!!
The current system will do NOTHING for your future life at all!!
So, continue studying Trig and Algebra and chemistry and biology and literature, because who knows?
Maybe one out of million of you will actually need it in their job, LOL.
