Unfortunately balancing my checkbook would never have required the kind of mathematics which yields the 1 trillionths digit of pi :-)

But I was born too late for checkbooks anyway. When I started to do paid work in the mid 1980ies, bank transfer was already the established way to pay one's employees in this part of the world. I actually never ever received a paycheck and wrote very few checks myself before they became obsolete some time during the 1990ies.
