Biochemistry, how to change a tire, cooking, survival skills, the Roman Empire, etc.

This is a good question.
The adult guide to life should include:
Budgeting. - How to live on a restricted income. Bill management; taxation; meal planning etc.
Better to have some ideas ahead of time rather than try to 'play it by ear' at the time you need it !
First aid: How to: give chest compressions; make people comfortable after an incident. What to do if: somebody is choking; drowning; epileptic seizure; heart attack etc.
Basic home improvement:
How to measure and fit carpeting or wood flooring.
How to hang wallpaper; paint effectively; how to treat mould or mildew.
How to wire a plug; Clear the drain under your sink; re-start your heating system; drain and refill your water tank/radiators etc.
Changing the plugs; air filter; anti-freeze; washer fluid etc. in your car.
All things that can improve or even save life !
Yet sadly they're things we only come to when things have started to go wrong !
