I agree fully. In fact, there are so many life skills that we don't learn from school. That prompted me to write Why School Should Teach Personal Finance: http://lawrencecheok.com/111/school-teach-personal-finance.html I have no good idea how to do this, but it's true that many of my life skills are learned about I stopped schooling. Great post Luke!

As for the typos, ouch! I will re-edit immediately. @Al Thanks for the comment. I hope so. I think there is a big difference between book smarts and street smarts. I think the key is learning how to apply it and learn. Thanks Al! @Ace thanks for that. As for the typos, ouch! I will re-edit immediately.
