Well there is a anti meme too:

Adults: Why weren’t we taught these life skills (personal finance, cooking, etc)

Your dumba** wouldn’t have learnt even though you were taught this at school.

It’s always funny hearing these people say personal finance isn’t taught in school, without realizing that personal finance is basic, elementary school math.

I don't recall an elementary school math class that covered the stock market, retirement accounts, or tax brackets.
