We had a mandatory course in grade 10 called Life Skills or something. There was 8 weeks on how to fill out income tax forms, invest money, and manage debt. In math 11 we were given 2000$ (imaginary) and told to watch the stocks in the paper every day for two weeks. One kid ended up with 22k. He also won the math award that year.

That was just normal, straight up public school.
