Many teenagers have admitted to not knowing much about personal finance, according to the article that number is 87%. Personal finance and financial literacy is meant to be taught by parents and schools to teenagers, but this is often not the case. ““Unfortunately, the parents think the schools are doing the training and the schools think the parents are doing the training,” Hoberman says.” Teenagers do understand that it is something they need to learn. Many teenagers get their money from a job instead of an allowance. It is now more important than ever to teach teenagers about personal finance because of the struggling economy.]]> 2017-02-14 17:29:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ari89p/9d1pgdgqxtzj/wish/153798417 ari89p https://padlet.com/ari89p/9d1pgdgqxtzj/wish/153798741 The statistics provided in the article clearly show that teenagers do not have enough financial knowledge to survive in this world alone someday."The study shows that 35% of teens want to learn how to save, and 28% know that managing a budget is important and want to learn the required skills." Teenagers become adults faster than they expect, and they need to be able to tackle adult problems. Lacking financial knowledge will lead to poor decisions with money later on, and could even create a nationwide economic problem if it got big enough. Many problems that people face today are traced back to money. If one cannot manage their money well, they will run into problems of all kinds. In order to accomplish anything in this world, one needs money to do so. It’s also important for one to support the economy with their money wisely in order to avoid another Great Depression.]]> 2017-02-14 17:29:47 UTC https://padlet.com/ari89p/9d1pgdgqxtzj/wish/153798741 ari89p https://padlet.com/ari89p/9d1pgdgqxtzj/wish/153798879 I think I should receive a 30 out of 30 on this assignment.
