I am 30 years old and have learned quite a few life lessons the hard way. I can't help but think I would have been way better off if I had been taught some practical skills in school. Like:

Personal Finance- I have studied this a lot on my own due to personal interest but I see so many of my peers getting into ENORMOUS debt. No hope of ever accumulating any wealth, except perhaps winning the lottery. Sad.

Getting Married-In a lot of cases it doesn't make sense to get married! So why do we do it?

Having kids- Ditto, no one ever tells you how much your life will change. Be sure you really want kids.

What else do you guys think they should teach in school?
