What is advanced-level mathematics used for?


I barely understand the bare basics of algebra, my math skills are abysmal. But what applications do advanced mathematics such as stochastic calculus and linear algebra have?

Other than in physics, science, and engineering, what other things can advanced-level mathematics be used for? How about in daily life?
