Why don’t schools teach kids how to manage money? In this episode of Limitless Ed X, we explore why public education skips financial literacy—important lessons like budgeting, saving, and investing—and how this gap leaves students unprepared for the real world. We also look at the growing need for young entrepreneurs to learn about diversification—spreading out their skills and income to stay successful as small businesses grow and the market gets crowded.

Discover how alternative education is stepping up to fill the gap, offering practical, real-world learning that prepares kids for a future where financial literacy is essential. If you’re ready to rethink education and understand how to build money smarts early, this episode is a must-listen!
