After listening to my boyfriend, Justin, go on and on about how great Rich Dad Poor Dad is, I began to think of it not only on a personal level but also how it could be incorporated in to the educational system. Because I do not have time to read the book, I was able to access more information about the book by watching and listening to youtube videos.

Do you think students should learn how to manage spending and investing money in school?

I think money managment should be taught in school. I think it would encourage students to take care of their money, save it,and use it wisely. Many students think that just because they have a job they can spend it on anything that they want. Many adults feel the same way,and end up with thousands of dollars of debt. I think if money managment was taught in schools then people would know HOW to use their money wisely, but it would still be their choice as with anything else if they would apply it to their lives or not.
