Hanna:So, next week I

have to do a debate in my

finance class.

Diego: Oh, really, what

is your debate about?

Hanna: Our debate topic

is about whether we

should teach finance to

kids, so things like

investment and the stock

market. Things like tax.

Diego: OK, and what do

you think about the topic?

Hanna: I think it is really

important that kids learn

about things like this,

particularly our society

these days, where literally

everything revolves

around money. I mean,

even when you're

fourteen or fifteen, you go

out and get a job and you

have to start doing things

like paying tax, and I

mean, you're gonna have

savings, and you can

invest that if you wanted

to and turn that into more

money, so even when

you're really young I think

it is important to know this

kind of information.

Diego: But don't you

think that there's a lot of

consequences when

you're burdening kids

from ... what was it -

middle school, high

school with financial

responsibilities? I mean

kids are kids after all.

Shouldn't they be playing

around ... going to the

park instead of worrying

about the stock market

crashing in Europe or in

The States?

Hanna: Well, they don't

have to worry about the

stock market crashing,

but I think it is good if they

know a little bit of

information about it.

Diego: But if they have all

the information every time

there's a drop in GE

stocks, they're going to

flip out and you know,

they won't be able to

sleep and you're giving

kids too much to worry

about in an age they

shouldn't be worrying

about these things. It is

after all they're parents'

responsibility to worry

about these things, and

eventually it's going to be

their turn but I think it's

just giving them

something before they

have to worry about it.

Hanna: So you think

junior high school is too

early to start to start

teaching kids about this

kind of stuff?

Diego: I think so. Yeah.

Especially when you're

making it because they

have to take responsibility

of their own money

considering the fact that

they don't even have an

income.

Hanna: What if they do

have an income?

Diego: Well, their income

would be like five dollars

an hour, so I don't think

they'll be investing

anything of that.

Hanna: Well, you never

know.

But if they have all the information every time there's a drop in GE stocks, they're going to flip out and they won't be able to sleep.

A businessman

You think it is really important that kids learn about things like investment, tax and the stock market, particularly in our society these days, where literally everything revolves around money. Even when you're fourteen or fifteen, you go out and get a job and you have to start doing things like paying tax, and you're going to have savings, and you can invest that if you wanted to and turn that into more money, so even when you're really young it is important to know this kind of information.
