It's just add/substract/multiply in different contexts or to find different quantities. On the other hand, real math is all about concepts and reasoning, and I feel like students are mostly being deprived of the enjoyable components of math. Concepts and reasoning are the exact reason you should learn math, or learn anything in school--to learn how to think. | ||

I have sacrificed starcraft  Only for a while though...

Yeah, to gain an analytical way of thought; to be able to analyse any problem and to come up with a solution corresponding to your current tools. Math is probably the best way to learn it. | ||

What I would sacrifice: Practice only PvZ and ZvP till reaching progamer level while learning Korean. Then with a time machine travel back in time to 2005/2006ish and befriend Savior by possibly becoming a practice partner. I'd probably use an alias like sea.ruby or something. Someone that doesn't stand out and isn't particularly remembered. I would show him the build shortly after he defeats Midas and starts practicing to defeat Much. I'd explain the build to him first and show him why it's so strong so he can be ready. With his level of ZvP at the time he could still overcome Much without practicing specifically to beat him and because I spent 2 years befriending him he might trust me that this build could be a real threat. Then after I was sure he understood I'd just retire and continue my life as before except being 5-8 years older. | ||

I guess you are right; although this one is sort of prominent that it stands out by itself. | ||

Then use that wealth to help augment / change the entire educational system. Sacrifices: I spend maybe 5% of the money I make on myself, I invest the rest. I'm quite content and in a great mood most of the time, but I'm never really happy and I don't really "enjoy" life. | ||
