That always stops them dead because most people don't think to include the time they spend researching as an expense for investing.

• Financial Baby Steps asks Should Personal Finance Be A General Education Class?. My answer is a resounding YES!!! The reason I started my business was because I kept hearing from way too many people who started their adult lives without even basic financial education and got themselves into trouble. It's horrible! My goal is to eventually start a non-profit geared towards requiring financial education in both high school and college. I think that the basics about credit and debt should be taught in high school before they start getting credit cards and digging a hole. In college they should expand on their basic education by teaching students about investing, retirement planning, goal setting and how to manage debt. Hopefully our government will wake up and take care of this.
