Hello Junhao,
I was majored in math (Applied Math and Stat). I chose my career in DS/ML/AI. I would say it's a popular choice nowadays for math major students to have a career in industry, besides academia.
It's well paid. However, in terms of whether your career or job would offer "have lots of time with family", it depends on many factors, not only for this career path.

Hi Junhao
a math degree is a very good degree to have. I am sure there are many options, for example teacher or professor. However, I have a math degree with an emphasis in computer science and started my career on the IT side of the house, coding and learning new ERP systems. Eventually becoming a project manager. I think the work life balance is critical these days to a lot of people, but I feel that it truly depends on the company you work for and your personal goals. A company with expectations that don't agree with your life choices is not the company for you. As for the personal goal side of it, if you are trying to move up maybe you spend a little extra time to get to where you want and then evaluate what you want next. Lives and situation are different for all of us.

I believe you have many choices to choose from. Math is used more and more these days, along with technology. What background do you previously have? Have you thought about teaching online? There are many math tutors needed and that can be a good choice. Some are offered by schools/colleges/private schools/parents/etc. You can probably go through them or offer your services as a private educator.
