Learning advanced mathematics without going to university would take an extreme amount of dedication, focus, and effort, but it's certainly possible. It's much easier with the resources available on the internet, and being able to connect with people through forums and stack exchange.
Those are some awesome recommendations. Half way through a bookmarking so paused to give a big thank you.
I don't care if I need 2 lifetimes to learn advanced mathematics. I might not even scratch it. It's the journey that counts to me - if I can learn one new tool, one new perspective of looking at problems and the world, I'm a very happy man.
The only person who loses out is my poor wife who must listen to my excitement and then has to go lie down for a bit because it's too much to digest.
