Found this gem in the memories section of pop_reference, from a post by sarahq:

article on Chuck Yerger
quoted from that article: "JC showed outstanding ability with accounting. In fact, he excelled in it so much, he actually helped me explain it to his classmates. While some of the other kids struggled, JC would take a look at rows of figures, and in a few moments figure out where a mistake had been made. His 'N Sync buddies are fortunate to have him in the band. Besides being a great talent, here's a guy who can make sure the books are balanced."

I did that, too! No, really!! My accounting teacher in high school was having trouble explaining a certain concept to the class (like the rest of what I learned in that class, I figured it out quickly), and he pestered me for a week to agree to teach the class for a day & explain that concept to my classmates.

It makes my little CPA heart go pitter-patter! MFEO!

I'm so glad I have you all to indulge me in my occasionally insanely-teenie-like squealings of joy.

I read that in some interview a long time ago, that he was a math whiz. It is still something I pick up on in fics, when the try to make him all spacey and make Lance the math genius.

It's definitely an area where fanon has gotten stronger & more generally accepted than canon!
