Seriously folks, do they teach them anything in school besides racism and riots and hating Trump.

Granddaughter is going to have a big lesson with her first paycheck.

——

Students shouldn’t be allowed to graduate without that life lesson.

Also,a real discussion on Medicare vs Medicaid and how long you pay for Medicare.

Throw in SS and earnings limitations, how your Medicare payment may rise based on your tax return. And end with is SS a tax ? , and do you think it’s possible to be taxed on a tax.

I have done this test when the opportunity presented itself and they had no clue

Heh.

So you think schools should teach them life.

Believe me if I were given a chance I would teach a class in paychecks.

How you check is computed. How to claim the right amount of deductions to keep the gubmint from holding back big chunks of your paycheck.

A tax refund is only YOUR money, put it in the bank and earn interest for God’s sake.

I taught this at most jobs I’ve held and I know it well.

How about we teach our kids one of the most important things in their lives....HOW TO HANDLE THE MONEY THEY EARN?????????????????????????
