What were Pythagoras occupations?

Pythagoras of Samos was an Ionian Greek philosopher, mathematician, and founder of the religious movement called Pythagoreanism.. Most of the information about Pythagoras was written down centuries after he lived, so very little reliable information is known about him. Pythagoras was the son of a gem-engraver or a merchant. As such he was born into a family of comparative wealth, which enabled him to pursue his own studies without having to worry much about money. Like most Greek philosophers of the era, Pythagoras was part of the upper crust of society and not required to work to support himself, rather he spent his time learning, teaching and playing politics.Pythagoras is supposed to have claimed that he had been Euphorbus, the son of Panthus, in the Trojan war, as well as various other characters, a tradesman, a courtesan, etc. The people of Croton where he settled for a time after he left Samos were supposed to have identified him with the Hyperborean Apollo, and he was said to have practised divination and prophecy. In the visits to various places in Greece - Delos, Sparta, Phlius, Crete, etc. which are ascribed to him, he usually appears either in his religious or priestly guise, or else as a law­giver.
