In schools, <strong>the</strong>y need classes to teach you about financial<br />
literacy, credit, and filing taxes. In my high school economics<br />
class, a teacher went outside <strong>the</strong> curriculum and tried to educate<br />
us about finances. For example, he taught us how to write a paper<br />
check since society uses it less frequently. I appreciate teachers<br />
like him who go beyond what's expected of <strong>the</strong>m to educate <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
students.<br />

They don't want to teach us everyday things but focus on <strong>the</strong> area<br />
of a triangle; instead, I would prefer <strong>the</strong>m to teach me about life.<br />

My fa<strong>the</strong>r didn't graduate from high school, but he self-taught<br />
himself how to do his taxes through <strong>the</strong> IRS tax code book. He<br />
was so skilled at it that he'd done all our family's taxes since. In<br />
addition, he taught me <strong>the</strong> value of owning and purchasing<br />
something versus someone buying it for me or giving it to me.
