Something is happening that pleases me and will be sweet music to the likes of @looeyville and @porwest who I know will approve.
The British Government have got something correct and are making education regarding personal finance mandatory. From now schools will need to teach things like budgeting and how mortgages work. A lot more useful than Latin. Of course it will take several years before society feels the benefit of this wise move, but it’s a start. I wish I’d had such teaching at school.
I hope that the education boffins also impress upon today’s young people destined to operate restaurants, cinemas, airlines, hotels, schools, funeral parlours etc in the future, that providing good quality toilet paper for their clients is money well spent.

That news is most excellent. If only all countries would follow suit.
