Why Didn’t Anyone Teach Us This Earlier?

FINANCIAL LITERACY

It’s strange, isn’t it?
We spend nearly two decades in school and college… learning formulas, theories, and diagrams. But no one ever sits us down to teach us how to manage money — the one skill we’ll need every single day once we step into the real world.

Then suddenly one day, you start earning. And it feels amazing.
Until you realize how easily that money disappears — on wishful purchases, heartful splurges, and things that bring momentary joy but leave you feeling anxious at the end of the month.

And then, the comparisons begin.
You see others buying new cars, fancy watches, designer shoes… and start questioning yourself — “Why can’t I afford this?”
What we don’t see is the background — maybe they have ancestral wealth, maybe they aren’t saving either, or maybe they’re just better at hiding their struggles.

But here’s the truth:
Most of us, especially those who are first-generation earners, never learned how to save, invest, or grow our wealth. So we end up working hard, earning decently, and yet… not building anything substantial — not for our dream home, not for travel, not for family plans, not even for emergencies.

I’m not saying that life is only about saving or investing. We all deserve to enjoy what we earn. But without financial literacy, we get stuck in a cycle — earning, spending, regretting.
And slowly, we lose the time advantage we could’ve had if someone had just taught us these basics early on.
