Personal Finance ?!

I had been neglecting this subject thinking it is too trivial to be one. But, I realized during one of my training sessions that it is the one of most important part of the materialistic world, and i am in one. One should know atleast the basics of finance, so that one does not end up complaining later. Markets, Economies, Inflation : these sound so alien, but affect the day to day life in one way or the other. I am wondering why this is not taught in the schools or college, in a meaningful way.

A thought from Rajni's 'Muthu' : dont let money control you, you should control money. For that you need to know how money works, and thats what basic finance is all about. Learn the basics , plan your personal finance, and bingo : you can see happily every movie that gets screened until your end. Thats the lesson i learnt 8)

I agree, somewhere this should be a part of school/college education! Or perhaps this is a useful idea for an educational startup? :)
