OECD/INFE Survey from 2024, coordinated by BaFin/Bundesbank (German Federal Bank): Approximately 20–30% have low financial literacy. What does the rest have? Super low financial literacy???

Currently reading Erich von Däniken with my son every night. It's all about how the extraterrestrials visited our Earth many millennia ago, fucked humans, fought against each other, and what we can gain from these information. You don't learn this in school, this is why unschooling, homeschooling or worldschooling is so important - you're taking full responsibility for your kids' education, keep them away from state indoctrination, and give them the opportunity to explore whatever they feel like. Check out Däniken's website, love this guy. Also looks like my grandpa, I like old people they're fucking cute: image
