Alan is worth $50 million. Edward is worth $1 billion. They've won the race. Now they get to do the cool shit and they only get to do the cool shit because they chased the paper.
Of course, you make the money, buy the university and then they let you do the good physics.. I set you up there little man, I had googled Edward Witten before and saw: And both of those references to 1 billion refer to Russian Yuri Milner the prize patron investor/venture capitalist (big fan of physics mind you from his early days). Guessing the bit of straw and mummified mouse corpse you use as a brain would just go with the first thing regardless of it being improbable.. Anyway.. My point stands, money sort of comes to the particularly talented easily, to little guys like yourself.. it must be quite a struggle. Very many don't particularly chase money as other things are more interesting to them.
