Financial Education helps everyone to enhance their knowledge and skills even the individual's talents are already given. It also leads for a better future because through financial education it's start to learn more things especially when we talk about money. People can achieve their goals when they work hard and we all know that financial education is more on business. Education is not only about knowledge inside the four corner of the classroom but also outside the room. Moreover, I can witness how cryptocurrency especially the BTC help many people make money in an easier way.
The lack of financial education reflects in our society in these days people may acquire the knowledge of finance through their experiences . Financial subject is also important in our daily life or else if they know nothing about financial control nothing will be left over .Financial education is acquired by while we grow up and getting deals with different people around us and from the surroundings .Finance education is the study about how to utilize money and how to save or invest money.
This financial education now is very important to us. Aside from learning from experience. We need to learn it by the books, i myself is a spender before and i leave with just enough money thru out the week until i got salary. Now, i am able to save as much because i care now for my financial status. Unlile before that i get to used to spending without thinking if i need that things or not.
I think in the world of crypto can learn finance, in my country many youngsters who still school play crypto after I studied they do not ask for an allowance for their snacks, they can even manage their own finances. for example, they play trading they will know when to buy and sell, of course, also they will think profit and loss yes it is also included in the category of a financial economy in terms of regulating finance.
Actually, we can start to implement the financial mindset into our daily life and not just from the education at school. Education is also important but the practice is more reliable than just the writing on a paper.

We see how important education is. We should know how education can fulfill our own daily lives. Before you are getting a work, you must have a good education. We should know what are the importance of education from now, but if you are a rich person, you are lucky. We know what is the importance of financial versus education from now on. We should have a financial for our education.
Education is the best weapon for all of the people and it doesn't mean that you need to go to school in order to have the best education because you can get the education if you will do self study and that is even better rather than going to school because you will be having more time to spend and you have the focus or concentration to put on the things that you like.

Yes financial education is very important because in our life can not be separated by economic activities. Should be in formal schools teach about how to manage good finance. So when they graduate then work and earn salary they can manage their salary well. If school not taught then we must teach ourselves at home
I do agree with some of your thoughts but no one controls cryptocurrency and the only way to spread it around the world is by using internet, social media and other forms advertisement. Everyday many people are being informed and curious about digital currency, it's the people like us who have knowledge about it that can teach or open the minds of people who doesn't have any clue about it.
The lack of financial education in general is a worrying problem. We teach students about literature, maths, science, ... and we tell them that those are the things they need to know in life. Yet usually, the largest single expense they will have on their lives is a house, and that normally comes with a mortgage. Yet, only a few schools will tell them what should they be expecting, the risks and the consequences of such a contract.
Bitcoin and alts is another case in which people are carefully kept in ignorance by the governments and lobbies.
What can we do to make more people interested in economy and finance and to better educate the youth so that they don´t get ripped-off?
,,,Financial is a common problem for education, because not all parents could able to sustained the daily and monthly expenses for their students. Education is important if the teachings from schools are all useful and effective. I think internet is important for the source of knowledge and wisdom. Bitcoin and alts is another case in which people are carefully kept in ignorance by the governments and lobbies.

I, myself is lack of information and knowledge on finances and I am in regret. I grew up hating numbers and finances because it makes my head ache or maybe I was introduced to mathematics and finances in the wrong way.
Today, I was hoping I had some background about finances or marketing even the most basic. To understand common terms such as stocks, demands and supply and the like that is now related to bitcoin. I am having a hard time to understand the mechanics of cryptocurrency and blockchain because I am not into accountancy, commerce and the like.
Now, I think this basic information should at least be included in the early education system as a whole not only in particular areas. Students may find this ridiculous but eventually they will know its value when time comes.

I don’t think we can rely just on school education to teach our children about finance. The lesson starts at home. In my family, 10% is the magic number.
• First, I make sure my children put 10% of their weekly allowance to savings before they spend the rest of their money.
• Second, the can only buy their toys if the price of the stuff is maximum 10% of their total savings.
My parents raised me with the same system. They make sure that I know the difference between needs and wants. You only buy what you need. Period.

The lack of financial education is indeed one of the root of being poor and the correct amount of financial education and correct mindset will bring health in accompanied with the right action. This things should be thought in school as well and not just science, math, english and other subject. Financial literacy is very important for kids in order for them to get ready for the future.
Government is not completely responsible if the community are lacking in financial education. We can start to educate ourselves by reading books about financial literature or searching through the internet. All we need is an initiative because we can learn about these things if we are not dependent in the educational program of the government. Even at home we can share our essential knowledge and skills to our kids to guide them and become aware regarding this matter.
The government is kinda guilty of the lack of financial education! At least in most countries there is a mandatory schedule and content for the students to learn and know. If the students are too busy learning how to do things that they will never use they dont have the class time to learn basics of financial education, economics, basic justice system, a slightly idea of how to pay or declare taxes and etcs. School dont give insights about real life.

As for the financial attitude of a person are sometimes depends on how they were raised by their parents, some parents are making their children like the prodigal. Spoiled brats are mostly getting old without any financial plan for their selves and just making the decision for a day. Money comes, money goes.
They were not taught to plan their future as they were raised buying their wants everytime they like something they get it.
Parents are the foundation of what the children will be, school is just guiding the children, and making the foundation stronger.

Not needed at all, if there was financial educations in all the schools, i think that more than 8 out of 10 teenagers would be the next Warren Buffet at this moment. The system is trying to make people stay out of the economics, to try to turn us into slaves who wanna work for $800 a month.
I think that financial things are not so difficult to learn - there's no need in a special subject about it in school...short course - maybe, yes
Warren Buffet had the school of life, the school of hard knocks to teach him I think. He grew up in the great depression when USA closed its borders to free trade and suffered greatly. He had the gold standard in effect at that time, which showed the mistakes quite clearly in pricing.
That was a great lesson by the system itself even while it was a troubled economy, it was an honest reporter of ongoing problems occurring. The modern situation is quite different and this latest generation does not have this solid background to learn from.
We do not have a gold standard any longer, we have continual budget deficits aided by loose monetary policy and the devaluation of the dollar. A very different playing field to the gold standard dollar of the 1920's 30's era that Warren experienced.
The current troubles and causes of failure and success to a business now is quite convoluted and hard to learn just by the apparent prices in the market. Politics interferes quite alot to the business balance sheets of every company in USA. To be good on figures alone now would not be enough, a finance education would have to very much aware of politics globally.
Lack of education is a problem in all fields. Financial ignorance is more serious because we lose money.
On the other hand, today those who want to educate themselves have all the means to do it. If you don't do it... bad for you.

Education starts from family. We cannot wait for the government to include that in the subjects in school. It is the duty of the parents to inculcate in the heart and mind of a child on how to become a goos person which includes the proper budgeting and handling of money.Bitcoin and alts is another case in which people are carefully kept in ignorance by the governments and lobbies.

Economics subject are are already enough to understand how this market works alsame with what we can do with it. There's no need to add additional courses since those willing to earn and learn will find a way.
