that was the first thing i asked myself 15 years ago when i heard about it...It such a recognizeable thing, of great stature and yet, it pays a measly: $1 Million dollars...It should pay: $100 Million dollars for each category...is an insult....The only prize that should pay: $1 Million is the literature prize because then it gives people´s: IDEAS and it becomes difficult to read...Why do they do that....Is an INSULT...I DONT THINK ANYONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WILL GO AND CLAIM IT BECAUSE OF THAT, INSULT...

the Nobel Peace Prize should pay even more than: $100 Million dollars...
