I blame a little bit on parenting here. I blame a lot on our education system by not teaching these kids anything about personal finance in high school.


See, this is what's wrong with this country. Take responsibility and quit blaming others for your problems!



I get what you are saying but we can't always expect someone who doesn't have any clue on how to do financial planning to do it. Just like a job, it takes training. My parents took the time to teach me. Someone has to step up and take the initiative.

There is something much more fundamental missing here. Blaming this on a lack of financial education is absurd.
