In the age of consumerism and economic disparity, one critical tool remains conspicuously absent from the arsenal of educational institutions: financial literacy.
As we delve in to this world of personal finance, a perplexing truth emerges—a truth deliberately concealed from the masses.

Please share this out with as many people as possible as the algorithms hate truth, and we are our own best hope.
Reason 1: Perpetuation of Consumerism
In a world driven by relentless advertising and unquenchable desires, ignorance is not only bliss but also profitability.
The powers that be understand this all too well.
By obfuscating financial literacy from the curriculum, they ensure a steady flow of malleable consumers—individuals ill-equipped to resist the siren call of materialism.
Without the necessary knowledge to navigate the deep waters of personal finance, the masses become easy prey, falling into the clutches of impulsive spending, mounting debts, and an insatiable appetite for unnecessary possessions.
Financial illiteracy sustains the cycle of consumerism, serving the interests of those who profit from our collective ignorance.
Reason 2: Preservation of Economic Inequality
As the world grapples with widening economic disparities, the absence of financial literacy in schools plays a pivotal role in maintaining the status quo.
Those in positions of power and privilege understand that knowledge is power—an understanding they use to their advantage.
By withholding financial education from marginalized communities and low-income individuals, the system perpetuates a deeply-rooted inequality that denies them the opportunity to break free from the shackles of financial adversity.
It is through this deliberate exclusion that the divide between the haves and have-nots continues to grow, leaving the disadvantaged struggling while the privileged prosper.
Reason 3: Influence of Special Interest Groups
Behind the scenes, hidden hands manipulate the educational landscape, ensuring the absence of financial literacy remains steadfast.
Special interest groups, including banks, credit card companies, and financial institutions, revel in the financial illiteracy of the masses.
With each passing day, those making the rules profit from our ignorance, exploiting unsuspecting consumers through hidden fees, exorbitant interest rates, and endless financial products.
Their nefarious grip on the system tightens as financial education remains a distant dream.
By evading the light of financial literacy, these entities safeguard their control and preserve their stranglehold on the unsuspecting masses.
As the veneer of deception slowly lifts, we gain insight into the insidious reasons behind the omission of financial literacy from schools.
The perpetuation of consumerism, the preservation of economic inequality, and the influence of special interest groups form the foundation of this dark conspiracy.
However, knowledge is power, and by recognizing the machinations that conspire against us, we can begin to challenge the system.
Please stay tuned as we uncover more layers of this captivating tale, shedding light on the hidden truths that shape our financial world.
Remember, in a world where ignorance is bliss, it is crucial to arm ourselves with the tools of financial literacy and rise above the orchestrated ignorance that seeks to keep us in chains.
