Are you showing off over my incompetence Mister
No, basic Maths yes, we all need that for shopping, bills, work, insurance quotes, life generally I agree.
Why algebra, which is the only example I can think of at the moment, as well as the bunch of other things I was taught that I remember but I can't name, that I've never needed to use, why is it emphasised that a good grade in Maths, being good at all these things, is supposedly important for someone's future, that's what I meant
Aside from my worrying about Maths, the only time it affected me when I wanted to do Psychology at 'A' level as you needed a grade C or above.
I blagged my way onto the course and ended up also doing it at degree level... I wouldn't say I found it easy, and sometimes I had to ask for help with the more Mathematical bits, but only for reassurance and no more than most other students.
