=== Early Life ===
Eugene H. Krabs was born on November 30, 1942 to Victor and Betsy Krabs. 
When he was less than three years old, he went to a Nursery. Here, he met Sheldon J. Plankton, who was born on the same day as him.
When Mr. Krabs was very young, he was put in the custody of his paternal grandfather, Redbeard Krabs, who was a pirate. Mr. Krabs learned how to be a pirate during this time.
When Mr. Krabs was five years old, he got a dollar from his father. He loved that dollar a lot, but he eventually had to spend it to buy a soda on a hot day.
At 5 years of age, he begun attending Poseidon Elementary school where he was bullied as his family was quite poor due to Eugene's father losing job.
After being humiliated by the class bullies, Plankton and Mr. Krabs wanted revenge. When Plankton and Mr. Krabs were planning it, they went to the carnival and Mr. Krabs found a penny. He thought it was the most beautiful thing that he had ever seen. He then asked Plankton what it was. Plankton explained that it was money and that he could buy things with it. Mr. Krabs then spends the penny on balloons for Plankton. This began Mr. Krabs' lifelong obsession with money and wealth.
In 1960, Mr. Krabs joined the Navy. Krabs earned the nickname "Armor Abs Krabs," due to being the manliest of the crew. His shipmates were Torpedo Belly, Mutton Chop, Iron Eye, and Lockjaw Jones. Krabs was apparently also an officer in the navy, for he was a "naval cadet."
During this time, Mr. Krabs' cooking skill improved, and towards the end of his career as a Naval officer, he found himself on a Naval cargo ship, which was carrying suntan lotion. The crew loved his cooking, but Mr. Krabs' superior, Captain Scarfish, did not like that they were not having slop. One day, the cargo ship was invaded by pirates. Mr. Krabs, along with Captain Scarfish and the ensign, captured the pirates. Mr. Krabs then freed the pirate leader, the pirate queen, and joined her as a pirate.
Eventually, using the training that his grandfather gave him as a kid, he managed to become captain of his own ship, which he called, "the Krusty Krab." He eventually faced the abominable snow mollusk, a fearsome beast of the high seas. He and his crew were devoured by the beast and forced to wait "for nature to take its course" to escape the creature's stomach.
Mr. Krabs and his crew were not doing so well (namely the fact that he had to share the profits with the crew), and Mr. Krabs had to give up his crew and sell his ship. It was also the seemingly last time he met his grandfather, who told him to carry on the Krabs pirate tradition and to never tell a lie. Mr. Krabs didn't have the heart to tell him he retired.
Following the war, he retired from the naval business and stayed secluded in his home, struggling with a deep depression that seemed endless. But his luck turned for the better when he met Maggie Waels, a girl he knew from Elementary school.
Soon, he continued his education in Bikini Bottom University.
One of the popular eateries of the time was Stinky Burgers. One day, Mr. Krabs and Plankton tried to get some burgers, but the owner, Stinky, told them that they could not eat at the restaurant, acting out of favor of the shallow Billy and his gang who were his customers that day. Later, Mr. Krabs and Plankton went to the back of the building. Stinky told them that he did not want them there because they would drive away his customers. When Stinky's shift was over, he drove off in a limousine, accidentally leaving a dollar behind. Plankton realized that starting a fast food restaurant had the potential to get the kids to like and respect the two, while Mr. Krabs was focused on the money part. Mr. Krabs was worried that they did not have the skill to make the patties. Plankton was not worried about that since they had science.
Soon, they found an old trailer in The Dump and, using science, created a great-looking burger. They were going to rub it in the face of the other kids, but Stinky Burgers was shut down. They tested the burger on Old Man Jenkins, who was Eugene's Godfather. The burger was delicious, but it knocked out Old Man Jenkins. The newspaper the next day said that the burger poisoned the old man. Mr. Krabs and Plankton then fought and eventually the two were fighting over the recipe. The force of the two sides pulling caused Mr. Krabs to go towards the wall and Plankton to go out the door. Mr. Krabs got most of the recipe and Plankton got only one part, which was only the corner, reading "...and a pinch of chum." When Mr. Krabs hit the wall, he caused several different ingredients to fall in the cauldron of patty batter, which made the burger good.
Soon after, Mr. Krabs and Plankton went back to school. Plankton had created a chum-based patty, which was the ingredient that he got. Mr. Krabs showed off his Krabby Patties. It was decided that the way that they would determine whose was better was by having the other kids try them. Mr. Krabs won. Plankton then vowed to steal the formula from that day forward.
After graduating at the age of 30, Eugene started looking for a job, but everywhere he went, he just couldn't fit in.
In 1972, he married Maggie Waels and moved with her into an anchor-house (3451 Anchor Way). With the little money he had, he bought an old abandone food local. He decided to start selling the patties made by the recepie by him and Plankton. At first, the restaurant wasn't very succesful, but that changed once he hired Jim. During the period, Krabs also worked at the cash register.
In 1985, Mr. Krabs hired Squidward Tentacles who worked behind the cash register. Next year, Jim quit his job as a fry cook because Krabs didn't give him a raise. Shortly after, a new fry cook begun working at the Krusty Krab, Mike Feeshfays. Feeshfays was quite antipatic and mr. Krabs wanted to replace him, but there weren't any people who would love such work. Three years later, Krabs divorced Maggie.
It was after this that Squidward's neighbor, SpongeBob SquarePants applied for a job at the Krusty Krab. At first, Mr. Krabs was reluctant to hire SpongeBob since he "didn't even have his sea legs". To get rid of SpongeBob, Mr. Krabs asked SpongeBob to get a ridiculously specific item and to not come back until he got it. After SpongeBob left, dozens of hungry anchovies flooded the restaurant. Before long, SpongeBob arrived back with the spatula (to the disbelief of Mr. Krabs and Squidward) and after proving his competence as fry cook, Mr. Krabs gave SpongeBob the job.
