Nobel Prizes have been awarded every year since 1901 to honor people who have made significant cultural and/or scientific advances in the fields of Peace, Chemistry, Physics, Physiology or Medicine, and Literature. Notable recipients of the Peace Prize include Barack Obama, Nelson Mandela, the Dalai Lama, Mother Teresa, Martin Luther King, Jr, and now Malala Yousafzai. So who was Alfred Nobel, and how did he come to have the most venerated international prize on the planet named in his honor?...

The deadline to claim the $1.5 billion Mega Millions jackpot isn’t until April 20th, and for tax purposes it was prudent to wait until 2019 rather than claiming the money immediately, as Simpsonville CPA David Stevenson explains: “I’m not surprised they waited until 2019… If they do it now they have all year to set up a charitable foundation if they are so inclined.” The tax benefits of setting up a charitable foundation doesn’t kick in until such a foundation is established, meaning that if the jackpot had been claimed in October the winner would have only had a couple of months to get all the paperwork and other details completed....

This year, that was Chris Froome, who cashed in with $549k for a first place finish out of 198 riders. That’s a pretty hefty lump in the wallet, but even more amazing are some of the statistics that ESPN compiled to put the greatest bike race on the planet into perspective. Here are the highlights: Even though the Tour de France is one of the toughest individual competitions on the planet, there are many other individual prizes that stack up – even some that dwarf the bike race’s top prize....

The Terraces is a luxury estate fit for royalty, with nine structures at all, plus three swimming pools.

For the 2015-2015 season, there are five guys in the NFL who will earn over $30 million. Ten will be making more than $20 million, and 29 guys will be making $15 million or more. So how is it that one guy can make $30 million when the team has to stay under a $143.28 million cap? Does no one else get paid? There is a trick. Teams back load contracts so the player can have the appearance of a big money deal now, but then offer players huge signing bonuses (which are paid at signing)....

Miller, after rejecting an offer of $114 million that would have made him the highest paid defensive player in history at the time, would have to play for the franchise tag amount of just under $15 million if the sides can’t agree on a long-term deal. Though several (if not most) teams in the league would be willing to beat the Broncos’ offer right this second, the exclusive franchise tag hanging over Miller’s head prevents them from doing so....

The answer is a whole heckuva lot. Tom Hanks, voice of Woody from Toy Story, the iconic young man playing the piano with his feet, and the stateless guy with an unintelligible accent, has grossed $4.26 billion dollars for the studios over the course of his three decade career. For anyone playing along at home, that’s an average of $142 million a year for Hollywood-aggregate. That makes Hanks’ net worth ($350 million) look like allowance money....

Mayer’s net worth is currently $450 million. If she were to be pushed out of her job by the buyout, she would get a severance package worth about $55 million – as long as she was not at fault in the termination. The severance package would be comprised of $3 million cash and $52 million in stock options and restricted stock that would vest ahead of schedule. However, Mayer is staying on, so that sweet severance package is out the window – for now at least....

Nestled in the Texas panhandle, Mesa Vista Ranch spreads across 65,000 acres and features a plethora of features like man-made rivers, a runway and airplane hangar, and a golf course. But the Daily Mail reports that it began as a much more modest piece of land, when Pickens purchased a tract of less than 3,000 acres in 1971, eventually building it out as the ranch of his dreams. That includes a castle-like mansion with five bedrooms and amenities like a 30-seat movie theater and a luxurious swimming pool....

Return to Hungary and Later Life: In his later life Andrew moved back to his native Hungary where he became somewhat of a media mogul. At the time of his death Vajna owned the largest commercial TV channel in Hungary, one of the largest radio stations and a popular tabloid magazine. His TV channel was extremely successful compared to its competitors, perhaps partially because of its somewhat pro-government stance. Andrew died at his home in Budapest on January 20, 2019 at the age of 74....

Babette and her children have denied the allegations against them. Theo and Karl Albrecht took their small family grocery store and turned it into a global discount grocery empire....

The house itself dates back to 1921, but the home’s “natural and raw aesthetic” (per its listing) doesn’t look like a traditional silent movie era palace. Somewhat unusually, the listing also doesn’t conceal Cooper’s association with the home, and specifically mentions his name right off: “This idyllic celebrity hideaway was Bradley Cooper’s first house in Venice, tucked away behind mature landscaping to offer complete seclusion and privacy.” The home measures in at 1,571 square feet with two bedrooms and two baths, making this an opportunity for someone to own a movie star’s home at a relatively modest price....
