Economics is highly speculative. Which is why it's often best as an elective or for higher education. As for financial planning... honestly I don't think it'd be as beneficial as everyone thinks it would be Poor spending is more of a behavioral issue than a learned issue. People don't spend too much because they don't know better. People like to do what's easy, and hate to do what's hard. Not to mention learned behaviors from their parents.
We have an economics and personal finance class at our school. It's an elective, as I think it probably should be. (My daughters are starting high school this coming year. They don't need a personal finance course, because we've already taught them about budgeting.)

The whole tone of Church teaching in regard to woman is, to the last degree, contemptuous and degrading. - Elizabeth Cady Stanton
