For winners of the peace prize the decision is often more clearcut, as the honor tends to go to politicians, organizations and activists who are under more public supervision. Many, like US President Barack Obama in 2009 and the European Union in 2012, donate to charities. Real estate, however, is a popular option, at least among those willing to reveal what they spend the money on. Phillip Sharp, the American cowinner of the 1993 medicine prize, decided to splash out on a 100yearold Federal style house. I took that money and bought a little bit bigger house...

Everyone prefers to give more when they are happy.
