Do you think it is wise to introduce the students to money matters? First is the value of money particularly in making purchases like we need to find cheaper prices. Second is buying the quality good that is worth our money. Basic businesses like selling or brokering can also be discussed. That is to give the students an insight on the value of money. At least those who spend without thinking will be conscious of the money in their hands.
 
Financial literacy is very important in order for an individual to make decisions on how to spend his/ her money wisely. This topic can be introduced slowly in preschool though games or activities . There are many subjects in high school in which money / resource management is integrated. The subjects impart the importance of living simply by prioritizing needs over wants . These students who learned the value of money can help build a "wasteless" society.
 
I think that it is the most appropriate time to introduce money matters to high school students. It will prepare them for their college and future as well.
 
I think it is a great idea to introduce money matters to students because it will effect their daily life when they are adults. It will prepare them on their choices.
