Prize money doesn't come for free.
Do you really think academic people would give that amount of money and not expect something in return?

>>9026462
who si that?

>>9026485

Lectures, articles, academic social events, ass-licking...
They're time-leeches. All the while you can't do maths.

We already have a pretty good Perelman thread here >>9009300 , it most likely has the answers you're looking for

>>9026541
It's just a Thread that turned into a racist shithole desu

If he shaved and cut his hair he'd have the phenotype Ashkenazi women crave

Didn't Perelman steal work from some chinese guys though for the Poincare conjecture?

t. slow board only faggot

it was a clever trick that granted him immortality in mathematical folklore besides being known as the "poincare guy"

What would a Mathematician do with money? Buy a new chalkboard?

>>9026462
To have it publicly known that you have suddenly come into money is very dangerous in Russia. Perelman’s life expectancy would have dropped immediately after accepting the million dollars. Russians that have tons of money either hide their wealth or build steel doors way before they make their first million. In addition to being a life hazard, money attracts a lot of bother. He would have been chased by all types of acquaintances asking for help or suggesting marriage proposals.
