because UCLA is good enough, and at that level, his personal name eclipses the school's name anyways.

mathematicians are so silly. an econ prof who didn't trade schools for a substantially higher salary would be looked at strangely by his peers. why would you have loyalty to a school?

well, there is a difference between math and economics.

economics still has some shadows of a pseudo-science, so its much more prestige conscious, driven by its insecurities. math doesn't. a math paper, by definition, stands completely on its own.

one of the top living mathematicians, Perelman, lives with his parents, and has no academic affiliations ffs.

Perelman is beyond 180. Turned down a fields medal because he didn't give a shit about being recognized, says he despises the prevailing politics and dishonesty in the mathematical community. Stand up guy

yep. the fact that he is a total recluse and hates academia, yet is still recognized as one of the top living mathematicians speaks for math as the purest science.

try doing that as an economist, and see how that turns out.

consulting - no. the skill set for consulting overlaps 100% with the skill set for a snake oil salesman.

finance - quant heavy funds like rentech, DE shaw would crap themselves to have him. the founder of rentech was the math chair at CUNY stoneybrooks. basically, not even on the same level with these guys in terms of pure math abilities.

$400k a year is his publicly disclosed salary. that means he's making around $500k after you factor in the all the undisclosed perks.

do you read his blog? he regularly has insights on a huge range of applied math topics. that's what's unusual about him; his range of expertise and ability to rapidly get up to speed and come up with insights on areas he's not expert in nearly matches his depth of expertise in analysis.

He's got it made at UCLA- for example, his kids go to the on-campus grammar school- and would gain very little by moving elsewhere.
