You need math skills to teach you to think in the abstract, to invent, buy, sell, measure, and value, and a hundred million other reasons.

My parents loved math, my dad taught me speed math. The military uses it in test. I suck when it comes to advance math. I had two real bad years. One, my Algebra teacher died, we had someone's mom sit with us a whole year. No math! I pass and went to Alg 11, need I say what happen? He had a sleeping disorder. He slept through the class.I had to hire someone to teach me math, so I could go to college. My HS grades were perfect, but I didn't have the skills.
I learn and managed in college. It was tough. I ended up tutoring Alg to high school kids. Funny I can hardly remember how to do it, now. I started working math problems for fun. It keeps you sharp. itsmee, I need to do that again, I'm not as sharp as I use to be. Getting dull with age.
The school should have been raked over hot coals for what they did to our class!
