Of course, I also believe that in addition to teaching kids (and adults) about money management, it would be really f**king nice if there was more info given before people undertake enormous student loans before entering, oh I don't know, for example, LAW SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!! Granted, we should all be big boys and girls and do the research ourselves, but going into debt for higher education has gotten TOTALLY OUT OF HAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE look into this stuff before you do it!!! Carefully plan out how much you will have to take out, what your interest rates will be, and how much your monthly payments will be once it's time to start paying it back. OK, so now everyone knows my big secret, but I just wish someone had warned me before I did it. (Me - banging my head against a brick wall, repeating the words "stupid" and "idiot" over and over and over . . .) I heard that.
