>In August 2006, Perelman was offered the Fields Medal for "his contributions to geometry and his revolutionary insights into the analytical and geometric structure of the Ricci flow", but he declined the award, stating: "I'm not interested in money or fame; I don't want to be on display like an animal in a zoo."

incredibly based.
he also didn't want ti because he thought it was unfair.
most based man alive, respects math.

He did it because he is passionate about mathematics, not for anything else.
And he recused the prize partly due to not wanting fame and partly for disagreeing with the idea of this kind of prizes. He's not the only one with this kind of view either. Feymann is on record saying he only accepted the Nobel because people would talk about and pester him more if he were to recuse it, to give an example.

Wrong. He rejected it, because slightly before him they considered some Asian guy. That Asian guy actually had a nonsense proof and the jury was unable to see that. Perelman rejected because they weren't even capable of detecting that guy's bullshit and he did not want to get a prize from people obviously incapable of understanding the impact.

Actually he has quite a few friends and he took a challenge from them to solve the problem.
Last time I heard he has some job in Sweden for a chemical company.

I think he has some kind of mental disorder like autism.

It's not just about those prizes that he rejected, his general way of living is way too unhealthy. It's quite clear there's something wrong with him.

Well he could at LEAST take the money n use it to buy food n not live in a shit condition.
This is what happens if youre anal deep in to math and cant even have decent sense of hygiene living.

Saying he is autistic may be going a little too far but you cannot argue that there is something wrong with him.
