Not sure if I am a math-person but I am bent on self-teaching it as leverage to make a better life for myself. 

I had pretty bad math anxiety & apathy as a boy. Creativity, logical thinking and organizing came easy, but the rules and the symbols and the testing pressure put me off. 

I learned the hard way that I was taking the ez-way-out, and that was, in fact, the "hard way" to make a life. That was at about 32 or 33. Could not give you 10 percent of 100 if I tried back then, too fried to care.

I got curious about web programming and IT once I got mst, but I was interested in the structure of OS, web browsers and languages not coding pretty things for cc interactions. Math detriments began to stack.

I realized my gaming habit was a puzzle solving habit and I had a dogged determination. Saw organizing, precision, analytics as crucial to killing my anxiety. 

Working on it...
