I have to do math instantly in my head for my profession, and be able to infer and calculate statistical ratios, relationships and progression at the glance of a page of financial statements.
This sort of work is possible without that, but would take infinitely longer to be good at.
We all have gifts given to us by God, and he wants us to use them. What saddens me is how so many never use their gifts, and instead remain chained to jobs and career paths that don't take advantage of those unique talents.
Also, the problem with how math is taught in school is typically students aren't taught shortcuts to effectively employ math quickly in their minds. Instead they end up convinced its a bunch of junk they'll never need to use, and that's a bummer.
