I watch the family I posted about waste beyond belief, yet I believe they honestly do not have a clue on simple or frugal living. It is actually a sad situation with imo no future hope of ever getting a head in life or changing the ways.
That's the sad thing, the cycle. There are many books at the library that can teach you how to plan budget, and save money. I think it's really an internal shift. I like your idea of mandatory classes.
