Teaching schoolchildren financial literacy has always been an acute issue. Some people think that this critical skill will be needed in the future, meanwhile, others do not agree with it. Personally, I hold the view that pupils should learn about the value of money and how spend it correctly. There is two reasons why I think so.

The first thing to mention is that the skill like financial literacy will be needed in the potential workplace. A plethora of employeers will definitely require it and it will be really hard to find a job without that skill. However, school curriculum does not include such subject. Teachers do not tell children about bank system, savings of money and spending it properly. Therefore, a multitude of teenagers lack of that mundane, but extremely important skill. As a consequence , there are a big number of unemployed people or the graduaters who cannot find a job. Hence, that is the first reason why finances should be tought at school.

Another thing to be noticed is that a number of people go into financial depths. It happenes for several causes. Firstly, maybe because they have had a disadvantageous economical background and no one gave the explanation for money. Secondly, maybe because they lost self-control and were blinded by wealth. Thus, people, who had such problems with finances, may not recover and return from these depths. That is a significant reason why we ought to pay more attention to this and start teaching finances at schools.

To draw my personall conclusion, I can say that spending money has alwas been an attractive topic to held a discussion. Society adheres to discourdant sides of the viewpoint. However, I am clined to believe that schoolchildren should be tought the financial literacy at school.
