Sam Jelfs Dec 2024 4:08pm, 19 Dec 2024 1,564 posts	Quote Pin Sam Jelfs One of the theories about why Alfred Nobel left ~95% of his wealth to start the Nobel Prizes on his death is that when his brother died some years before him there was a mistake and some news papers thought that he had died. He got to read his own obits, and they weren't positive, calling him "the merchant of death", and that he "became rich by finding ways to kill more people faster than ever before, died yesterday". This wasn't how he wanted to be remembered, so changed his will.
