Financial literacy can pay off!
I believe that every subject has parts of it that are completely irrelevant to everything and there is no point in learning it because you won't need it in life. I also understand that it depends on what you do in your future as far as your career. For example and second grade teacher will never need to use calculus II where as an architecture might. It all ties back to what you do in your future.
A class I think should be a required class in order to graduate high school is a money management. Whenever you get out in to the real world there are so many people that don't know how to manage their money and end up in debt financially because they were never taught how to manage their money. A course that I have taken through high school that was very helpful to me was my AP English III. My teacher made the class useful because he used examples on how we can use things in the real world.
I feel more prepared to handle money and finance to an extent. I can manage my money but I feel that I could have been prepared a whole lot more because there are so many more things that I still don't know about money and finances. I would feel more comfortable by taking a class or being taught rather than just being thrown out there to fend for myself without any background on finances.
