I couldn’t agree more. And you are right that it has nothing to do with peoples intelligence or education.

I also have given up helping people. It is a waste of time. Most people simply don’t think further ahead than today or tomorrow. And then they turn around and blame their financial difficulties on the system, politicians, greedy rich people, immigrants, white people etc. Anybody but themselves. consistently refusing to take responsibility for their own actions.

I didn't write this, but could have. 100% agree with what you are saying. The whole thing about "my school didn't teach it, that's why" just makes me so mad. It's just simply not that difficult.
