Complex numbers might shift your reality around.
Complex numbers have a 'real' and 'imaginary' part.
e.g 7 + 3i
i is defined such that i-squared = -1  (yes MINUS 1)

When I learnt this I realised that 1 + 1 is often more likely to add
up to 3.
My life has been much more stable since I rejected 1+1=2 and replaced
it with chaos.
Particularly when trading.
