Beyond $Job, and intellectual cred? ~Never. But as a way to build "brain muscles", and serious appreciation for how complex both the world and abstract systems can easily be - advanced math is a cheap (for society) degree. No field work, fancy instruments, nor laboratories, as most sciences require. No auditoriums / theaters / etc., as arts & music generally require. Nor... And at least back when I was in grad school, $College's need for TA's for the intro-level math courses (that many other fields of study required) made it really easy to pay the bills. |
