I did a degree in Electronics, and hence had to do a load of degree level stuff.
I haven't used any of the degree level stuff. Ever.

Trachtenberg Speed Mathematics is all you need to know. It lets you perform autistic savant-like calculations in your head. There is a good book on the subject:

Learn the system and you will be hailed a genius and afforded a lifestyle of riches and beautiful women will fall at your feet, maybe.Comment
