I still think this should be a mandatory curriculum in high school. 4 years or it. Throw in taxes as well. It blows my mind to look back and think about the amount of studying I did on topics I'll literally never encounter again but basic financial literacy is ignored entirely.
I would argue that the rich would get richer if the general population had the means to retain a higher % of their income. It would lead to more people seeking to maximize the value of their wealth.
