For those with children in Primary and Secondary schools,
you will notice what they teach and learn is not so meaningful,
yet stressful.
There will be a lot of enrichment classes which will wipe off the edusave fund given by the government.
Some may even have to top-up in cash.
Basically the courses are quite useless. Maths, Science Olympaids. Leadership, entrepreuer courses, camping, etc.
However, school said compulsory, just follow, as the children feel obligated. They do not want to be ridiculed by the teacher ( some are big bullies).
Learn to Earn (or Earn to Learn) like what Peter Lynch said could be more useful, like picking up a part-time job at the earliest age about 16 to 18 could be more meaningful
At least you got to learn how a business is run from their point of work and also learn how money is earned the hard and meaningful and respectable way.
And of course, save some momey in the process.
