RE: WARNING - ARE STEEM AND SBD REALLY JUST "MONOPOLY MONEY?"

in #steem-price7 years ago

you gotta understand most americans could not tell you the difference between money and currency, our education system no longer teaches anything about finance,currency, stock market, you know there isnt even a class that teaches our children how to start a checking account, how to balance an account, and the value of saving. so people having an issue with crypto currency just dont understand that if you can change one of anyghing for another of anything they both have value, we look at the world through dollar eyes not currency eyes.

Very, very valid point. I used to be there myself. Thanks for chiming in.

Money mechanics should be a mandatory course for high schoolers. I know basic economics is mandatory but there needs to be more in depth course work. Young adults use the system everyday but are clueless as to who the Federal Reserve is...
