Moritz von Cohn
Baron Moritz von Cohn (19 September 1812 - 29 April 1900) was a German-Jewish private banker.
Cohn was born in Wörlitz. As the proprietor of a private bank in Dessau, he advanced to be court-banker to the dukes of Anhalt and also over several decades administered the private fortune of the Prussian crown prince and later emperor Wilhelm I. He thus also made himself a strong financier of the capital for railroad construction, then developing in Germany. He died in Dessau, aged 87.

gollark: I'm at the point of knowing the syntax and basic libraries and stuff, but I have no idea how to write useful code.
gollark: Also monads, which are burritos, oranges in a radioactive spacesuit, and also `Monad m => (a -> m b) -> m a -> m b`.
gollark: I find it very hard to reason about code which frequently ends up chopping up infinite lists.
gollark: Haskell code is very confusing because of its crazy use of abstraction everywhere, somewhat alien (but nice and clean) syntax, and the whole lazy evaluation thing.
