[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was really uninformed/ignorant in my 20s and had no idea what maxing a 401k meant. I didn't start saving until 30 and even then I only did 10%. Reading DCUM was an eye opener and encouraged me to start maxing both 401ks and be more aggressive saving for college. I wish more people openly chatted about this at work or wherever, because unless you start reading books about finance it's not really covered anywhere. [b]I also think they should teach a basic personal finance course in high school. [/b]At least it gives kids a basic foundation if it's but something their parents discuss. [/quote] You are so, so right. They really should. My parents did discuss finances with me, but without that I wouldn't have known what to do. [/quote]
