    I guess that Americans aren’t supposed to know how to avoid debt.

    Of course not, that’s kinda the point of our financial system.

    I had half a semester of ‘home econ’ in my seinor year of High School ~2000. We didn’t really cover much that was useful for actually balancing a checkbook. The class was clearly a checkbox that they didn’t actually expect us to do anything in.
