I don't think there's anything like that in schools.
Definitely I didn't get any information about how investments work, etc.
Looking at my friends from school it is so obvious what happened:
-
The kids with fathers that own their business, ended up rich while managing the business.
-
All the other kids ended up working for someone else, and they're all relatively OK but clearly struggling, as in, they have to continue working or they run out of money.
That's basically what happens. Rich families pass this information to their kids, and working class families teach their kids that they should work hard.
It's basically the main premise of the 1997 book Rich Dad, Poor Dad, from Robert Kiyosaki.
It makes sense really, because you need way more workers than entrepreneurs/business owners.
But I think with AI we will start to see more 1 man companies since you can use AI as your tech employees, but that's a topic for another time.
i saw a bit of this, alhtough nobody really owned a business from my school set, apart from one kid who was set up for life right away.
richest guy from my year is a self-employed hairdresser lol, no wife and didn't even accept card payments until covid forced him to, he had a porchse when he was like 22 (not the best model, but still) while all out other friends were saddled with massive student loans and very, very average jobs
