BOSTON Massachusetts K-12 students could learn financial literacy skills through a new state curriculum established amid renewed nationwide interest to address pandemic-induced financial issues through education, according to a bill re-introduced by Rep. Peter Durant, R-Spencer.
The bill mandates the creation of a curriculum from the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education to enable students to make critical decisions regarding personal finance including understanding loans, borrowing money, managing credit card debt, saving and investing, using banking and financial services, and more.
“The premise of this bill is that we need to teach our children at an early age, well before they even leave high school, about financial literacy,” Durant said. “There are basic things that an adult needs to know so they don’t wind up in their 20s in serious financial debt.

In 1940, his parents opened a meat market on Main Street in Sherman and Ronnie was in charge of preparing the chickens to sell. At the age of 11, Ronnie bought his first cow and at the age of 14, he was so busy dealing in cattle that he had to hire a driver to get him from farmer to farmer.

I read someone once that, after a pastor has been in a church for five years, 15% of the congregation are ready for a change. It’s nothing personal, and these folks may actually love their pastor. However, that 15% of the people tend to embrace change of any kind.
Most of us are the opposite. We resist change. Not all change, of course, but, if it disrupts our daily life, we tend to put up a defense. My wife is more likely to embrace change while I am the one that tends to resist.
