Entranced by arithmetic since youth, he had an impressive memory and a remarkable limit for mental figuring and "representation" of his creations.
In the wake of concentrating on mechanical and electrical building and material science, he worked in a few European power organizations whose last sent him to New York, where he arrived with three sub-pocket and a letter of proposal from his supervisor sent to his respected and as of now renowned Thomas Edison. The letter said: "Dear Edison, I know two awesome men. You are one of them, the other is this young fellow. "
His association with Edison
Edison and Tesla will keep up an antagonistic relationship: Tesla lived consumed by his examination (it is said that he frequently to rest just two hours for each day), vivified by a solitary energy, the advancement of science for the advantage of the of mankind ; then, Edison was looking for popularity and held in high regard his "entrepreneurial ability". Truth be told, Edison won't hold the guarantee he had made to pay Tesla $ 50 000 in the event that he figured out how to enhance its motors and generators, who strolled gravely, guaranteeing Croatian in an incredible giggle, when he ought to have paid, he "didn't comprehend the American diversion." Later, a "war of the streams" is announced between the two men, war Edison attempted to win unreasonably. At last, the AC found by Tesla was perceived as the best DC shielded by Edison.

In the wake of breaking with Edison, Tesla discovered a decent accomplice in the individual of George Westinghouse, a businessperson who has confidence in his thoughts and backings to complete them. Together, they typify two noteworthy activities: the Chicago World's Fair (1893) and the powerhouse of Niagara Falls.Westinghouse offered him a vast total of cash for his licenses, in addition to a rate for benefit from his revelation of rotating current. Nonetheless, a mind-boggling tangle of advances that the businessperson can not reimburse, and a battle endeavoring to ruin the Westinghouse organization propelled by JP Morgan, which tries to take control of the vitality division, will avoid Tesla to gather expenses that would have made him gigantically rich: Westinghouse when he uncovered the situation of his organization, Tesla tore the agreement they had marked and, along these lines, surrender its rights over the utilization of its licenses the circulation of the exchanging current. This is a motion of incredible liberality additionally, most likely, given what was to happen next, a blunder will keep it from subsidizing ventures that will plan its special cerebrum.
At long last, JP Morgan chooses to put resources into the undertaking Tesla Wardenclyffe tower. In any case, after the innovator clarifies that his definitive objective is to disseminate electrical vitality to the world and requiring little to no effort, monetary, stressed over the fate of its vitality domain, pulled back his money related backing.
It is from this episode that begins the decline of Tesla. Many people thought he had gone mad. He will die alone in a York Hall (The New Yorker) in 1943. At his death, the FBI confiscated all his works.
