If you study in school and believe you can win a medal in the IMO, IOI, IChO, or IPhO, you should consider moving to Uzbekistan. Starting this year, the monetary rewards for medal winners have increased five times. Now, you will receive approximately:
- $29,000 for a bronze medal
- $43,500 for a silver medal
- $72,500 for a gold medal
Note that: You must study in Uzbekistan to be eligible for the prize. If you win a medal in different editions of the same olympiad or multiple olympiads in one year, you will be rewarded for each medal. The amount is not fixed, increases with inflation, and is tax-free. Also, it is probably easier to pass all selection stages and qualify for an olympiad here rather than in your country.
It is not clickbait—consider moving to Uzbekistan. Other reasons: easy to relocate, Uzbekistan is visa-free for many countries (just look at the welcoming index); a safe country; low cost of living; delicious food; and many other benefits.

looking at the map of Asia, it seems like it would be more fitting if Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan switched names.
wdym?
Ever since I decided to memorize the countries of Asia, which was almost four years ago, I have felt that Uzbekistan looks more like it should be named Turkmenistan and Turkmenistan looks more like it should be named Uzbekistan. In fact, that is actually how I remembered the two. I was playing this map game called Seterra and whenever it'd ask me to click on Uzbekistan, my cursor would hover over the two countries, and I'd think to myself "click on the one that looks more like it should be named Turkmenistan" and vice versa.
Also, it is great that your president is doing such a thing, but, instead of doing that, why don't they just award actual gold/silver/bronze medals to the winners? I see that the Olympiad gold medals aren't actually that big, but they can probably make them bigger so that the gold medal's bullion value is actually around $$$70k$$$. The tricky thing, then, would be that the silver medal would have to be huge in order to actually be ~$$$40$$$ grand. But I think that your country can solve that by making it platinum instead of silver, because platinum is around $$$\frac{2}{5}$$$ the cost of gold, and around the same weight, so the platinum medal wouldn't have to be that much bigger than the gold medal to have the $$$40$$$ grand value. Also, platinum is kinda the same color as silver, so it works out. I'm not sure what you'd do about the bronze medals, though, but I'm sure that there is some value in the fact that it is a medal from a prestigious competition, so its market value would probs be at least $$$1k$$$.
100 tons of copper (pure enough to conduct electricity for normal use) is needed to match 29 grands. So no, that is a bad gimmick.
hmm, they could always remove the bronze medal
