6 Ways to Make Millions... With Math

in #money7 years ago

Well, it would have been 7 ways ten years ago.

Anyhow, unless you're an avid mathematician or someone who just likes keeping up with the world, you probably don't know about the Millennium Prize Problems. A total of 7 math problems, of which one is already solved, that have a bounty of one million dollars each, hence the name Millennium Prize.

These math problems aren't impossible, or at least the one that Grigori Perelman did wasn't. Perelman is very low-key and even though he has been awarded various prizes from organizations such as the European Mathematical Society and the Clay Mathematics Institute, he declined most of the prizes and said, "I'm not interested in money or fame."


Smart people. sigh

Here is a list of the problems:
Poincaré conjecture (solved)
Prove that: "Every simply connected, closed 3-manifold is homeomorphic to the 3-sphere."
Links to very complicated solution: (Wikipedia)

P versus NP
Hodge conjecture
Riemann hypothesis
Yang–Mills existence and mass gap
Navier–Stokes existence and smoothness
Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture

Out of the six, I feel that the "easiest one" would be the P versus NP problem. I can barely understand the rest.
I just wanted to share this, maybe someone out in the Steemit community happens to need some money or just has nothing better to do than look at unnecessarily complex math problems.

Props if you can actually solve any of the seven, even the already solved one.
If you get the prize money split some with me!
Upvote and follow if this made you think a bit. :)

Remember, you heard it here at

I heard it here... Quick, what's the purpose of the light-independent reactions in photosynthesis?

Haha, SAT Biology test tomorrow... :(
To use the ATP and NADPH of the light-dependent reactions to synthesize G3P while also oxidizing NADPH back to NADP so that the light-dependent reactions can repeat. :)
