The Countries that routinely outscore the USA and rank in the top 5 in the standard International Math tests — South Korea, Japan, Taiwan and even China, rank LOWER in terms of financial literacy?

Hmmm....

How do you suppose they would answer this question? Did the people in western capitalist countries get wealthy by working hard and efficiently creating goods and services that other people want or did they get wealthy by stealing resources from people in poor countries? How would Bernie Sanders answer that question.

That is racist, the entire English speaking world is financial literate (accept India). How dare you post that.

"Suppose you need to borrow 100 (country currency). Which is the lower amount to pay back: 105 (country currency) or 100 (country currency) plus 3%?"

Unless you're a bushman who has spent his entire life in the wilderness exposed to nothing but stone age technology, if you can't answer this one you really are too stupid to live.

I'm also surprised by how poorly countries like Japan did, I would have thought they would have done at least as well as western Europe and the US/Canada.

That map tells a lot more about cultures, too.

Perhaps they should have asked the question with 100 goats.

I wonder how many people are map-drawing literate? With my tired eyes it is really hard to see the subtle changes in blue!
