Not To Be Confused With the Nobel Prize
Swede Wins $900,000 Math Prize
Lennart Carleson of the Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden won the $909,900 Abel Prize for mathematics on Thursday for his problem solving and contributions to advancing the discipline.
Wow, that's...one, two, three zeros...that's like thousands of dollars he won just for being good at math. Luckout!
