If you become a mathematician and you dont use it to provide solutions for companies around you. You will be useless to yourself and everyone.

And you will be broke. Mathematics is a tool you can use to provide solution to people that can pay you. You are like an artisan, you need to work for people so you can get paid. Only difference is you get paid more for intelectual work. You can also consider other jobs that dont require employment just services. Private tutoring, auditing, data analysis for academic projects, spreadsheet modelling etc. Studying mathematics cant be such a bad thing except you dont know how use the skills you have.

All the best
