I remember when I graduated high school, I agreed with many of my classmates, we were not ignorant kids. Looking back at what I have learned over the years, yea, I was a ignorant teenager.

Just the facts of life like buying a house, maintenance required in plumbing and electrical needs, car and operation of a car and the maintenance on cars. How to do a job like interact with a customer and photograph a wedding or industrial plant.

How to handle money and investments and retirement savings.

I have learned a lot more of the history of the USA and the world, and world wars than I ever wanted to learn in school. Now it is interesting to me.

To meet and have known men that landed on the beach on D-day, and were there during the Siege of Bastogne and hear their accounts first hand. Yea, just getting through life will teach one much more than any school.
