What did Pythagoras do for a living?
It depends on if you think teaching is a job. If you do, then his job was teaching. Although he wasn't a teacher like teachers today, he created and taught at his school, Crotone, in Italy. He also had his special circle of privileged students who were sworn to secrecy and he reveled to them his "Pythagorean Theorem". If you don't, then he did not have a job. He did not get paid to teach students, so he did not have a regular income of money, but in his situation, he didn't need money, for his students would get him whatever he would need ,like food. I, personally, think that he did have a job, it was just not the usual type. But it changes based on how you look at what Pythagoras did.

What did Pythagoras do for mathematics?
Greek Mathematician Pythagoras is considered by some to be one of the first great mathematicians. Living around 570 to 495 BC, in modern day Greece, he is known to have founded the Pythagorean cult, who were noted by Aristotle to be one of the first groups to actively study and advance mathematics. He is also commonly credited with the Pythagorean Theorem within trigonometry. However, some sources doubt that is was him who constructed the proof (Some attribute it to his students, or Baudhayana, who lived some 300 years earlier in India). Nonetheless, the effect of such, as with large portions of fundamental mathematics, is commonly felt today, with the theorem playing a large part in modern measurements and technological equipment, as well as being the base of a large portion of other areas and theorems in mathematics. But, unlike most ancient theories, it played a bearing on the development of geometry, as well as opening the door to the study of mathematics as a worthwhile endeavor. Thus, he could be called the founding father of modern mathematics.

What did Pythagoras and Euclid do?
Pythagoras was a Greek mathematician and philosopher who lived in the 6th century BC and is best remembered for the Pythagorean theorem (the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the opposite two sides). Euclid was a Greek mathematician living in the 4th century BC who taught at the university in Alexandria, Egypt. He became known as the Father of Geometry many years after publishing a thirteen volume work called Euclid's Elements in which he compiled and explained all the known mathematics of his time. Euclid's Elements is the world's most famous mathematical work and is also the oldest continuously used mathematical textbook. It is the foundation of the geometry still being taught in schools almost two and one-half millennium after Euclid's death.
What are Pythagoras' metaphisical views?
Pythagoras was an ancient Greek philosopher. However, he had little to do with metaphysical views unlike Philolaus since he was more involved with creating a code/way of living good life.
