I got a STEM degree that didn’t require any financial classes. I learned all that on my own once I started making adult money at nearly 30. I see (quite a lot of) others in my same boat who didn’t bother and are making six figures while living paycheck to paycheck still. The last round of layoffs were quite a shock to these people.
I’ll give big credit to my parents who also never saved a dollar and gave me the fire inside to never allow myself to wind up in the same position after seeing the disastrous results of said decisions.
Edit: funny that a CJ degree is mentioned as my aunt and her (trash of a human being) prison guard husband took out a $500k loan to remodel their $250k house. They got divorced last year and still can’t sell that house. He lives in Florida now and she moved into a trailer park.
