Editor' note: Since last year, many Chinese primary schools have been teaching students about financial management and investment. Even some provincial authorities will incorporate estate and stock courses into the mandatory curriculum for some schools. Should investment lessons be mandatory?

I don't know if investment lessons should be mandatory but it wouldn't be a bad idea to teach kids from a young age how to be capable of managing their own money and the importance of honesty in business, etc. Also lessons on how to treat employees and subordinates.
