Yes being good at math can make you successful, so can being good at skateboarding. But your better off learning more common areas of bussiness rather than learning math because maybe you might become successful knowing math. I also understand that some schools may teach you bussiness but those schools are very scarce. So why should it have to be an I spy to find a school like that when it should be the norm?
"this world isn't only about succeeding in business life" no it isn't, but it sure as hell is important. People waste half their lives working so they can try to "succeed in business". So because it's not the number 1 thing in the world we should learn random things like chemistry, physics, math. NO, we should learn bussiness even though it isn't "the most important thing".
