I would argue that saving money and personal financial planning uses calculus concepts, and that they are enhanced by formally knowing calculus. It makes questions like "how much money will i have after x years given my mortgage, income, and assets?" approachable. It isn't feasible for most people to hire a human financial planner, and i wouldn't want to use automated tools without understanding enough to be able to perform sanity checks.
