Javier Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 16 Year Old, Norwegian GM Magnus Carlsen recently won the Category XVIII Biel Tournament. Here's 3 questions from a full interview: Do you plan to attend university later? My parents would like me to, but I am not sure. I would like to dedicate myself to chess. Your fees and prizes are going up in tournaments. What is your relationship to money? To be honest, I do not know what to do with it. A company has been created for practical reasons. I am not a spender; I do not have big needs. I do not go shopping to buy clothes, and my cell phone bills are ridiculously low, as opposed to my friends. Do you dream of chess in your sleep? Rarely. When I do, however, nightmares wake me up with a jolt. I see myself make a stupid mistake, or I see my opponents cheat so that they can beat me! Read the full interview here!
