Top mathematician chooses to live a modest life away from the limelight

[Zuth]

Atleast hes not a greedy dude whos just done it for the money, fame and awards. Good guy

[redtom]

I think he's an idiot who will one day regret not milking what talent he had. Obviously being a mathematical genus doesn't mean your thinking straight.

[Conservative,]

He's an inspiration. Incredibly intelligent, I aspire to be like him, although I doubt I'd turn down the money and prizes...lol. But fair play to him.

It looks like this has given him a lot of trouble, poor guy.

Thats why I was thinking.. he honestly deserves it and if he didn't want the money, I'm sure his mum would of needed it or another family member, he coulda donated it to charity if anything. But then again, money isnt for everyone, but the awards? I really do not understand why he would not accept any awards :S

Like I said, he's a weirdo. I mean he can accept the money and donate it to charity. I think it's quite stupid to turn down the offer altho he's quite intelligent in solving those maths questions.

For a smart man you're right he could have thought of a smart way to spend the money if he didn't want it, like charity.
