    Who should be teaching financial literacy to the kids?

    Yes, I pulled this from TLR. But it's a good question. There was a time when high schools taught home economics, civics, and certification in a trade. Now not so much. Should high schools be required to teach financial literacy of some sort? Or should that be on the parents? Personally, I...

    I have never seen anyone look down on smart kids in the black schools I went to.

    I'm trying to figure out where you guys get this idea that black folks (black Americans to be exact) looked down or mocked extremely smart/book nerd kids in school because I never witnessed it. If anything what I seen was all the kids in school gave them props and complimented them on how...

    Concerning education in Africa

    I'm just gonna copy and paste what I said in a different thread. The Nigerian Crime Stories Thread This isn't concerning Nigerians specifically, but they're the prime example IMO: I saw a video a while back stating that Nigerians are the top earners in the US and I think the UK and there were...

    What advice would you give a breh with a GED?

    I know a young guy who is a pretty good guy and a hard worker. Granted he only works lower end service jobs like fast food but he goes to work, works all the hours he can, and has a positive attitude. He also stays away from the wrong crowd, drugs, etc. This may not sound like much but if you...
