    Since what year were the Nobel Prizes worth one million dollars?

    Question #2872. Asked by Roxanne33.

    McGruff

    The Nobel Prizes were worth approximately 1 million dollars in 1995.

    As McGruff states above:

    A large monetary award is included with the Nobel Prizes, currently about 10 million Swedish Kronor (slightly more than one million Euros or US dollars). This was originally intended to allow laureates to continue working or researching without the pressures of raising money. (In actual fact, many prize winners have retired before winning, and many Literature winners have been silenced by it, even if younger.)

    Many Booker and Pulitzer Prize winners have often gone on to become Nobel Laureates. I'll name the book they were awarded the Pulitzer or Booker for and you name the author. Should be a lark, and nothing a little research can't fix.
