Can introduction of new subjects like trading help the economy?

We must not entirely look up to government to provides everything we needed, but real deal is that we should be sincere to ourselves as government can't provide employment for every individuals or people around the world, that is why they had sets up some educational qualifications in the labor market, when people who are educated enough with good quality won't for any day remain jobless after they applied with so many jobs within the surface space.

The reason why it partially looks like government responsibility is to give everybody job is that when the government provides a good country safe enough to accommodate international companies 80 percent of the citizens will definitely have a job but in most cases they have neither give any employment opportunities nor make sure they created value that would make companies and businesses to excel and must especially making their economy to favour everyone. so this is what the government owe everyone under there governance, alot of international companies usually love to open a branch in some countries for more growth but when they saw that the crisis in the country will affect there production they will instead look another safe country to diversify while the opportunity and employment people could have gotten has been suspended because of incapability of the government, so actually they are the ones that sometimes causes an unemployment in the country.

First of all, Trading in general is zero sum game so if someone is making profits means someone else losing their money.

Schools? I doubt that will happen. Trading is something that kept under the radar intentionally and it's wide reach is happening only due to the evolution of internet but big players don't want you to know about it. And for the record school doesn't even teach about money, economics and actual history of money so we can't expect them to teach about making money and financial freedom especially via crypto trading.

I don't see how introducing trading in school will help the economy of a country. I think it would be better if schools made commerce a compulsory subject for students because commerce is more related to the economy, and a country that excels in commerce will surely boost its economy. What every country needs is commerce, not trading.

Trading is just for individuals, and I don't think schools need to introduce it. Trading is risky because of the volatility of the market, and whoever wants to go into trading should make that decision independently, not under the influence of schools offering it as a subject.

If people are making money that's always good for the economy because it brings money in the circulation so more business which means more tax so it's not like completely irrelevant. And if a country regulated the crypto properly they can squeeze decent amount in the name of tax but it is possible only if government is supporting the adoption.

But rich guyz doesn't want you to learn about ways of making money apart from salary sland they are the one who is running the government.

Yes, it can create an advantage partially, but the growth and success of one’s economy cannot be guaranteed completely just because you have learned the basics in trading. Know that trading is still a game of speculation, and if you don’t have reliable experiences in the market, you will still be susceptible to mistakes and gradual losses.

Just trade as your side hustle, but get a real job first and foremost. That way, your own life and economy may be more secured then.

Its not especially a new subject, money changers are mentioned in the bible.   I think the modern take on Forex trade though massive is that it represents an inefficiency and unfairness in the modern system whereby we have floating currency exchange rates but the system agreed was fixed to gold post ww2 and it should have been left as fairly simple as that for the majority of countries.
   My take on some kind of improvement would most likely be covered by the AI industry developing and already partly involved in trading.  I believe we do benefit from improvements to automation and efficiency there but its not going to be about people directly most likely.

I was thinking about how acquiring skills like cryptocurrency trading has helped a lot of individuals out of poverty, so I was wondering if subjects like cryptocurrency trading or Forex trading are introduced into curriculum of students, will that not have a direct impact on the economy of the country by reducing the number of people dependent on the government for a job? Has this not yet been considered or is there a reluctance in the government to make sure that people learn valuable important skillset in school aside the other things they have been learning for years.

I did not know the correct place to make this post, economics or trading, I am okay with the moderator moving it to the right place if this is not it.

Actually, some parts of engineering already touch on trading concepts, like engineering economics and basic economics in high school. But in today’s world, trading has evolved with new fundamentals that go beyond what those subjects cover so maybe they should add those too if ever. It makes sense to introduce trading as a subject because IMO, it's not just a gamble, it’s applied math, data analysis, risk management, and psychology. They say engineering should only focus on technical stuff, but trading is technical now, and students should learn how markets really move, beyond just the FOMO and manipulation by big players. Maybe in the future, they'll consider it, this is actually a real world stuff and I think this subject should be in universities.
