I remember that the social studies teacher brought in a friend to "help" with the financial literacy portion, in 8th grade.
We got told to bring our parents into a car dealership for extra credit.
And sure, that's all well and good. Did they also teach you how to contribute while you are low income or if you wound up not actually working because you were taking care of a spouse, child, or parent? Probably not. I'm gonna guess that statistically, you are more likely to be the poor person that can't save.
