Do you feel well prepared for the adult world ?

Question

This question is only appropriate for people over 18 in North America,some Other countries.But, possibly for Jews over 12 or 13. Since,that's how early they enter adulthood.
I would like to extend the question by asking; Do you feel like you were taught enough survival skills,concepts etc.To fit into this world and make it a woth while life.

Answer 1

No. You learn most of it after school when you finally get into the real world and experience it for yourself. Bills, taxes, insurance, car problems, medical expenses, credit, investing, relationships ... All part of being a grown up.

School only teaches you how to pass tests and pick up academic knowledge which is still important, but for survival you either have to learn on your own or have your parents, trusted friends, guardians, older siblings show you how it's done because school alone won't teach you everything.

Also if Jews 12-13 can handle all this better than 18 year olds here then we're really screwed. ;)

Answer 2

No, I hear it's a scary place and no one seems to like it there.
