The stock market is the greatest wealth-creation machine of all time but we don't teach anything about it in school.

That's wrong.
I made a presentation about investing/stocks that I teach at my kid's elementary school

Then I do a fun multi-year stock-picking game

If you want to borrow my slides, here you go!

I start the kids with $10,000 fake dollars

These picks are from 2 years ago

Pretty good results!

I’ve ranked 300+ stocks using my investing checklist

These 10 stocks got the highest score:
Caveats:

1: Some of these scores are 2+ years old and are outdated
2: My scoring system is subjecting - you could rank these same stocks and get different numbers
3: My checklist favors some industries (software, healthcare) more than others (banks, insurers)
10: Atlasssian - $TEAM

Score: 83

What: Productivity software

Founder-led, cash-generating, wide moat, great culture
