I'd suggest that the 1929 stock market crash get an entire unit in elementary school, High school, and every economics course in college. Do the same for the 89' crash and the Dot com Bubble. Really drill it into these young entrepreneurs how Speculating in the stock market NEVER EVER leads to anything good. It's a Faustian bargain. The consequences WILL arrive; not a matter of "if" but "when."
Not sure about never. I did very well from my Amazon stock at $25
Yeah I have done pretty well too, but the music box is winding down at this very moment.
