      Excellent arithmetic skills which I so use. Nothing much beyond that.

          I did a degree in Electronics, and hence had to do a load of degree level stuff.

          I haven't used any of the degree level stuff. Ever.

          I have used A-level stuff (solving simultaneous equations) but it's very rare.

              Trachtenberg Speed Mathematics is all you need to know. It lets you perform autistic savant-like calculations in your head. There is a good book on the subject:

              Learn the system and you will be hailed a genius and afforded a lifestyle of riches and beautiful women will fall at your feet, maybe.
