Greetings @sahmie, the moderators, my co-debators and judges. I am @dave-hanny and I am here to present a topic which says Financial literacy should be taught in school, with my few points I am believing that you will be convinced and not be confused, thank you.

Finance: Simply means money. Money is an institute on its own that needs alot of knowledge and experiences else, there would be mismanagement of those funds. I was previlledged to be in a position of keeping fellowship's money and the truth is that I had alot of challenges while holding such an amount of money.

Financial literacy: Also means having little or more knowledge on how to handle money. Alot of us mismanages money wether it's ours or not which leads to bad reputation and somany issues arising especially when that money is needed and it can't be found.

Should Financial literacy be taught in school?

Yes! I said a loud yes because our younger ones and children needs to have knowledge of keeping money safe especially when it's not yours or may be it's yours but for a particular project. Some people don't move forwards in some of their projects because they do not keep to their agreement of saving that money for a particular purpose.

Most people have this money alot and in as much as having this money alot does not mean that the money should be mismanaged but fortunate enough, since the person has money it means that he or she can keep spending but you know what? Even if it's a trillion Naira and the owner of the money started using the money, that is how the money will keep going until the money finishes.

Having that unique knowledge on finances and management of finance should be taught in schools because of the above reasons. A child should get the concept of finance completely right from primary school as a subject to the secondary and possibly to the high institution as a general course of study.

Having knowledge on financial literacy leads to;

• Good management of finances
• Good use of finances
• Success in projects
• Savings

Thank you all for reading to this point, I humbly invite my friends to join the contest. I love you all...
