It goes without saying that perhaps everyone knows that the Nobel Prize is named after Nobel, a famous chemist and inventor. At the beginning of the Nobel Prize, it was divided into five prizes, namely, chemistry prize, peace prize, physics prize, physiology or medicine prize and literature prize. Since 1969, the Swedish Central Bank has set up a new prize for the Nobel Prize, named the Nobel Prize in Economics. These six awards are awarded to those who have made the greatest contribution to mankind.
In p>1895, Nobel set up these prizes in his will, and in 191, the Nobel Prize was first awarded. It has been more than a hundred years since then, and the Nobel Prize has never stopped in these hundred years. Some people can't help feeling that the Nobel Prize has been awarded for 124 years. Why hasn't it been spent so far? How much money has Nobel left?
Nobel was born in Sweden in 1833. His father was a scientist. He studied things with his father since childhood, so that he spent his childhood in the laboratory. Nobel received only one year's formal education in his life. In the later life, he studied chemistry with a Russian professor, then studied chemistry in the United States, and worked as a short-term worker in his spare time.
After returning to Russia, Nobel devoted himself to his own scientific research. Every experiment is always dangerous, and Nobel's experiment is no exception. On September 3, 1864, there was a big explosion in Nobel's factory, in which five people died, including his brother. Because of this incident, the neighbors were terrified, and everyone complained about Nobel. After that, Nobel was forbidden to do experiments in the city. But this did not hinder his love for chemical experiments.
In p>1863, Nobel obtained a patent for nitroglycerin detonator in Sweden, and then he set up a chemical plant in the suburbs and began to put it into production. Because what he studied was very dangerous, the government never believed him. Finally, he learned that nitroglycerin could only explode if it was poured into the bath mud and ignited, which was very safe. The government began to believe him slowly.
After that, Nobel was successful in chemistry, and it was precisely because of this that he had become an industrial tycoon in the 197s. In the following years, with his business acumen, he created an industrial empire of his own and became the richest man at that time. He has countless possessions in his life, and even he doesn't know how much wealth he owns. In his view, fame and money are both things apart.
Nobel once said, "I don't see that I deserve any honor, and I'm not interested in it".
Just like this, before his death, he wrote a will that influenced the world and future generations. The will indicated that he would use 94% of his life property to set up a foundation to reward talents who made great contributions to scientific research. Of course, this will will certainly attract people all over the world, especially Sweden, but fortunately it was settled later and the will was officially issued in 191.
No matter how much money you have, there will always be a day when you run out, and the Nobel Prize is no exception. It seems that a lot of money will not last long. In the past 1 years or so, due to inflation, there is a gap between the bonuses of each session. Moreover, in 1953, the Nobel Prize faced another risk, that is, lack of funds.
To know that the Nobel Prize can't be broken, the Nobel Foundation came up with a method in Qian Shengqian. They put the money in the bank and managed the money by various means such as financial management, stocks and real estate. Of course, you can't choose high-risk financial management, or even the principal will be lost overnight.
Therefore, they chose the most prudent financial management method, and afterwards, they used the interest and bonus generated from the principal as the Nobel Prize. This is why the Nobel Prize has never been broken for so many years.
Everyone looks at money in a different way. Some people think that money is something outside the body, while others think that no money means nothing. Money is important, but it is enough as long as you can ensure your own life. Just as Nobel said, "Money is enough as long as you can live alone. If it is too much, it will only become a scourge to curb human talents.".
Nobel laureates are all elites. They are said to be geniuses. Needless to say, geniuses are born. Although they are sometimes influenced by congenital factors, you should know that most talents are closely related to your hard work and hard work. Industry is good at diligence and leisure, and success is ruined by thinking.
