Thanks for this post, with clear words to the younger ones of us.
For my 1974 model year, the stock exchange was something alien, from another planet. There was no access.
And the supposed knowledge that my pension was secure.
Plus inadequate financial education.
Unfortunately, I still see it far too often in my environment that young people, by which I even mean everyone up to the age of 30, don't think about their retirement and spend all their money "on their heads" and fall into the "buy now, pay later" credit trap.
Society needs to educate young people much earlier on how to handle capital.
We can all do our bit here on getquin and simply address this topic with young people in our private lives and arouse interest in capital accumulation and retirement planning!
It's all the nicer that more and more young users are joining in, getting involved and even making their own posts.
To be honest, I didn't have anything like this in my head when I was 17, even if it was a different time.
I have the greatest respect for that!

@TradingHase Very well described.
But I think it is deliberately done so that young people never learn/know how to handle money or invest.
Because the whole system consists of creating debt.

@Wiktor_06 I don't even want to think about it.
A financially enlightened youth could have such great added value for society as a whole. I'm sticking to poking young people and perhaps arousing interest or at least making them think about the very distant future of pensions.

@TradingHase You're right. I've noticed myself that 3 people in my class are interested in investing. When I talk to people about it, they usually want to change the subject. One colleague has €73,000 in his savings account. And only invests €5,000. I've tried so many times to persuade him to park it all in a WTF. But he doesn't want to understand.

@Wiktor_06 Persuasion doesn't help, people have to understand and be convinced. Then there is also the opportunity to go one step further and invest.

@Tenbagger2024 It would be interesting. Just one lesson a month would have to be invested in it so that a basic interest can be awakened.
Perhaps in the 8th/9th grade and then perhaps offered as an optional subject the following year.

Most people see the stock market as boring. That's why you have to show how exciting it can be.
