Found this kind of interesting. Singapore gives gold medal winners (757,000 USD Equivalency), while UK, Sweeden, and Brazil offer 0.
Looks like 1 athlete cashed out in Singapore by winning a Gold. Weird on how smaller, less established countries are willing to shell out more for winning. Although athletes representing US/Britain etc... probably earn a great deal through sponsorship.
