If you are a top soccer player at age 24, you could make many millions ... Look at Messie, Rooney, etc. at today's game ...

Even if you were in the top 1000 soccer players in the world, you'd make good money ...

But if you are a top mathematician at age 24, you might just get a tenured position, and keep publishing or perish.

It's just another silly rant, but isn't it depressing that you won't make much money even if you WERE extraordinarily good at math? Please, you could become a great trader, or a hedge fund manger even if you didn't know math beyond calculus. Warren Buffet made billions in the markets even though he didn't know advanced math.
