I am an Industrial Technology teacher. I teach subjects in home repair, automotive technology, construction, etc. Financial literacy is very important in these areas because high school students sometimes don't understand the true costs of putting off maintenance, hiring work done, or just buying new. Interest rates, depreciation, inflation, overall cost of ownership, these can all be new ideas to many students I see. So many times in our society the minimum monthly payment is all that is looked at, and we don't take the long view as often as we should.
