I read an interesting book a while back called "100 math concepts you need to know", or something like that. Pretty dorky, but the author made a very interesting observation about the amount of math a person has affecting overall success in life. Apparently, good math skills translate into good analysis of some of life's decisions, and in the long run predict a higher standard of living. I think Calc I is the practical limit of usefulness and all the rest has little added benefit.
Agreed.

Making your brain perform math equations "trains" it to solve problems algorithmically which is vital to most any profession you go into.
