Today is the first day of April ….and NO this is NOT an April Fools post….it really is National Financial Literacy month……I personally think this is a good idea because the American people are the dumbest I have found on economic and financial issues…they need all the help they can get and I cannot wait to see just what types of education the people will receive….
I would like to help in their education on economics and finance……
All the people need to know is….if it sounds too good to be true, then it mostly like is……there you go…all you need to survive in this world of economic scams….
One last thing….if your economic strategy is motivated by greed, then you will NEVER learn a valuable lesson!
Side Note: In case you were considering a visit to the theater to see “How To Drain Your Dragon”…..Done!…..it is a cartoon about training a dragon, not a potty training movie…….I should have known when I realized it was Train not Drain…..(always with a little humor)
Good point . UTTERLY true, although I think there is ONE other important financial lesson to be learned too…
As I pointed out recently on my blog, there’s little difference between the government and the Mafia (except that the Mafia may be more “honorable”) so, by implication, there’s little difference also between that illustrious organisation and government approved and sponsored entities…
THEREFORE, if you don’t think it’s a very bright idea to get a loan from the MAFIA, don’t borrow from a BANK either! Live within your means to have a snowball’s chance in hell of being even a little bit free from government sponsored slavery!
I find it humorous that people who pride themselves on stuff need education on what is good and what is bad…..our they are screwed easily
It’s not going to change – theold saying applies – there’s none so blind as those that don’t WANT to see!
or “stupid id as stupid does”?
That too 🙂
Funny how greed forces one to think less rational…..
