  1. Thank you for the reply, ajb. A PhD would be nice, of course, but first I'd like to study on my own and see where that takes me. I recently bought the following books: "The Math Book" (cover says: from pythagoras to the 57th dimension, 250 milestones in the history of mathematics) by Cliford A. Pickover "Mathematics 1001" (cover says: absolutely everything that matters in mathematics in 1001 bite-sized explanations) by Dr. Richard Elwes These were found from a while back: "Mathematics: From the Birth of Numbers" by Jan Gullberg "Advanced Calculus" (second edition) by Robert C. Wrede and Murray Spiegel After the Holidays (Happy Holidays, by the way) I plan to study those books, day and night, until I learn it all. Until I get that sense of mastery. Until every thought and every dream is about math in some way. This may take a very long time, but I'm willing to put in the effort. Good luck to you, too.
  2. Hello, I'm almost 30 and I've decided to quit my job in order to pursue mathematics full time. Basically, I want to discover something that will make me famous and put my name in math books around the world. That's it in a nutshell. Now, I'd like you to give me some much needed insight into how realistic my new found dream is. Please understand that I've had some talent in math as a kid, which was a decade ago, and that in order to realize my dream I'll be living and breathing mathematics, all day, everyday, for the rest of my life. Thanks in advance for any insight you're willing to share with me.
