I actually read an article in the newspaper that indicated that Romania gives its gold medal winners and additional 50k, I believe the US gives its winner 25 (I could be wrong) and even Kenya gives its gold winners a flat screen tv washer and a dryer. Canadian gold medal winners receive nothing.

i didnt know people competed for big screen tvs and cash. maybe they should just give that out for winning instead of the medals.
