Maybe it is stupid question. But Do really physics or mathematics makes a man more clever in real life in sense he can be a millionaire or a president of big company?
As I understand, if the thought of becoming a millionaire or a president of big company comes into the mind, then probably the person is not a physicist! Although a person can be both a physicist and a millionaire but independently.
Dear Dmitry!
Russian oligarchs were physicists? Seems to me they do not know the table of derivatives even... :) Maybe Perelman was a millionare? :):):):). But statistically, say the 60% of millionares were physicists? Could you please give the references from Forbes, e.g.?
I know that in 1990 years all Russian physicists from very young to very old were going to abroad, in Europe, in the US, in Australia, New Zealand, maybe to Mars, whenever! (I joke). :):);)
@ Anatoly, here is one example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuri_Milner#Breakthrough_Prize
And what? HOW IS DOING BUSINESS IN RUSSIA? PHYSICISTS?????????? I do not now mean even billionares, I mean small, middle businessmen. What does the statistics gives us?
I think physics makes a man very stupid in some way. My example is Einstein who frequently could not find the way to home from his Princeton university office (as I heard!). If you think on so complex physical questions you can forget everything. The aim of physicist is completely different from a businessman. The physicists are not so healthy people. In the US they are Russian, Chinese, India, quite small parts from Europe and US. The reason is clear - the salary is SO small!!:):):)
But the physics is so, say infinitely complex thing for understanding...:).Maybe the physics is like a computer game, a labyrinth in which you want to find the exit and can not do it...:) That is my view. Physics is crazy science and I want to find the way for clear understanding and can not do it.
