But then there are taxes, and the fact that I'm going to have to buy several math textbooks over the course of my learning. This is robber, anon.

I already said I want a physical book to hold. But yes, I will probably just use libgen unfortuntaely. I may also go to a public library, but the books in there are gross and there's tons of homeless people and poc in there ...

buy used, less expensive books. no ones forcing you to pay $100 for baby rudin. the best math textbook ive ever read was like $8 at a half price books. i think i bought stewart calculus for like $12 shipped from thrift books.

in my experience, half priced books sells books for way more than "half price" but I'll have to check out thrift books, thanks anon

Why even try? Some third worlder who never had to pay for books, and got a college degree for free, will take your job. Simple as.

Out of date? What kind of math are you trying to learn that's new enough that you're worried about it being out of date?

thats a thriftbooks order, not half price books. im not sure thriftbooks has any physical locations. although i know for a fact you can walk into a half price and ask them to ship books from another store to there. i should remember that next time im on the hunt for griffiths quantum.

That’s literally nothing. Some of my law school textbooks would regularly run $500 each and I’d usually need 4 or 5 per semester. You could get used, and I often would, but they’re still expensive.

This, college children are a captive market and they all have daddy to pay all their bills for them so the publishers know then can charge exorbitant prices for textbooks and without negatively impacting their sales.

Are you attending college in a third world country? American textbooks are hundreds of dollars each. $50 for a textbook is entirely reasonable.

Print it out at the library. You want it in hardcover? Buy a couple pieces of wood and learn how to bind books.
