Well, we don't have economics in high-school.
But I absolutely know what you're talking about cuz this is what I study in college. Except the fact that I'm interested in these things. ;P
In my opinion learning about economics, their bg motivations, processes, finance: all help to have a more realistic view of society and manage your own financies and the earned money in your future life.

The only thing I criticise in our education: too much theory, few practice to understand it and get why it's beneficial for you. Like going for a trip to stock exchange or so. haha.

    I agree, economics is very interesting and even in just casual conversations in class our teacher taught in a practical real-life sense about mortgages, retirement accounts, stocks, bonds, etc... So now we're all better prepared for that junk.

        I'd probably major in economics in college but my real love is Biology :)

            I understand it won't be easy by a long shot... I'll probably work my ass off and only become a mediocre doctor. I'm intelligent but far from the best, but I know how to put in hard work and get things done, which seems to be a more valuable skill sometimes than intelligence.

              Yeah, agree on that. I think it's the most important you like what you do, then you have more persistence and mood. Recent days it's not even neccessary to have one profession, you could study on or try out a new line etc.

              Sooo enjoy yourself! ;)
