First off, I have no interest in being a mathematician. Math was always and continues to be quite difficult for me.

So, as an outsider to advanced math, it blows my mind that there are people who’s entire job title is mathematician. How does that work? What does a mathematician do?

    Depends on which kind of mathematician you ask for, can he utilize said math in engineering, for example, or does he only know pure math?
