>got rich people to fund his neet lifestyle where he multiplied big numbers all dayHow
>>17015703He had a sweet doo-rag and was rizzin' up a German princess. That's how. My boy Euler's a Chad.
>>17015703he was a glow nigger
>>17015703Euler is creating graphs and graphing things and edges and stuff?
On 7 January 1734 Euler (27) married Katharina Gsell, daughter of Georg Gsell, a painter at the Academy Gymnasium in Saint Petersburg.[34] The couple bought a house by the Neva River. Of their 13 children, five survived childhood. 5 huh? I guess that's normal around diseased Europe.
>>17015747This. Nearly all "great scientists" are really glowie disclosure managers.
>>17015703In 1760 (aged 53), with the Seven Years' War raging, Euler's farm in Charlottenburg was sacked by advancing Russian troops. Upon learning of this event, General Ivan Petrovich Saltykov paid compensation for the damage caused to Euler's estate, with Empress Elizabeth of Russia later adding a further payment of 4000 rubles—an exorbitant amount at the time. Euler decided to leave Berlin in 1766 and return to Russia.The political situation in Russia stabilized after Catherine the Great's accession to the throne, so in 1766 Euler accepted an invitation to return to the St. Petersburg Academy. His conditions were quite exorbitant—a 3000 ruble annual salary, a pension for his wife, and the promise of high-ranking appointments for his sons. At the university he was assisted by his student Anders Johan Lexell.So he whored himself for privilege from the group's political instability.
>>17015703The eye freaked them out so they gave him money to go away
I'm more envious of Göthe, who had rich parents and could just study a bunch of shit.I'd kill to be a forever university student while being able to maintain my current wage-slave standard of living.
>>17020409kek
>>17028011Pretty sure whores make more money on average.
>>17015703So... scientists are pretty much politicians, huh?
>>17015703Cause he helped with the kings pluming
>>17015703Thats how science was done, based on patronage from others. Now the taxpayers does the work.
>>17028053Most don't. Women get paid to "work" aka sleep around with the boss, but the salary is not that high.
>>17015703he was a humble and nice guy.exceptionally rare among great mathematicians of the past who were mostly petty, egotistical assholes.
Yeah but it was different back then. There were not that many smart people, and rich people would fund you if you were smart. Now they just put you on salary and destroy your working rights and stuff.
