Got a Little Money Now What?

Got A Little Money Now What? is for adults of all ages and teens. How many people do you know who have taken a class on the proper use of the finances of your household? I'm not talking about a college course such as Business Financial Management. I'm speaking of household financial management. We need practical and demonstrated knowledge in the area of household finances by the time we reach adulthood and ideally even before but why aren't these principles taught as life skills since we all need them? It's sort of like having children and nobody really teaching you how to successfully parent - right? Should these life skills be picked up randomly from whomever chooses to share them - right or wrong? Let's spend a little time together looking at some things that are basic necessities for avoiding missteps and achieving financial freedom.
