People do Math for interest. People do other things for employment like what's already been mentioned accounting, actuarial, finance, etc.

People who do well in maths have got good chances... but let's say you miss out on a finance job... then you're screwed. At least with accounting you can easily get into some crap like Big 4 auditing or you can even get into an investment bank doing auditing.

Don't worry, there are always elitists...
At least you have a secure job.

Thanks Minai- and same to you.

Btw if I end up at UNSW I still need to figure out how to get onto the question writing committee... I'll ask u abt it sooner to the time though.

maths is a versatile and challenging degree to get . it's just difficult to compare the quality of degrees across different unis (the math schools vary quite a bit in size and strength). you could do a masters which i think would be good for programmer/analyst positions.
