[quote=Anonymous] Studies tend to say that high school personal finance classes, which are widely required, are pretty much worthless as far as improving financial behavior. Requiring additional years of math seems to help, though. Resume improvement is close to a zero sum game. If X is hired because of improved resume skills, Y won't be. It seems unwise to spend scarce time and resources on something positional, instead of e.g. teaching them how to punctuate their sentences, which would make both of them more valueable employees.[/quote]
