3 Highly Ignored Subjects that Are Actually the Ones We Need the Most

There’s such a huge divide between what we’re taught and what we actually need to know in life that it’s almost funny.
It’s the perfect rat wheel trap — Plop into school. Get good grades. Get into a prestigious college. Take a student loan. Get good grades again. Land a high-paying job. Live paycheck to paycheck. Hate your job but slave away. Finally, pay off the student loan. Your paycheck increases but so do your expenses. Slave away. Get married. Continue to slave away. Have kids. Pull them into the rat-wheel as well. Retire at 60 — to “live” whatever life’s left.
