I see both sides of this argument and am really not sure which side I land on. But I wonder if this fits into things like driving, where hey - done recklessly this is dangerous to yourself and others around you, so we require some level of targeted education (e.g. a license). Then if you choose to be reckless anyway its a bit easier to say "it was your own fault".
I bet you credit providers would even front the cost of such a course, since at the end of the day they're still likely to make that money back no matter what.
I think the part that I struggle with is the hard reality that we are largely _not_ teaching people these practical skills in our education system and then expecting them to not get screwed.
