A survey released by Visa showed that only five percent of adults learned about the vital life skill of money management in elementary or high school -- a surprisingly low number.

The Visa survey of one-thousand cardholders also found that less than half of people learned about money management from their parents while 41 percent were self-taught or learned the hard way.

For some people, the fear of visiting a dentist outweighs the pain of a toothache. But putting off that visit almost invariably leads to more advanced oral health problems and lengthier, more complex procedures. What many people don't realize is that they can work with their dentists to learn about and implement anxiety-relieving strategies, according to Dental Health for Adults: A Guide to Protecting Your Teeth and Gums, a new report from Harvard Medical School.

The most direct approach is to be straightforward with your dentist and explore various strategies for pain reduction together. Improvements in techniques, medications, and equipment over the past 30 years mean much more comfortable visits than those you might recall from childhood.
