- A few questions/comments re Fischer:
-
- 1) I've read that Fischer hasn't been paid for
- F-S II....is that correct?
- 2) If Fischer hasn't been paid for the match, would
- that have any effect on his problems with the U.S.
- government? (As an aside, I believe he did receive
- an unannounced payment before the match too.)
- 3) If Fischer somehow didn't negotiate the prize money
- properly, the prize value is going to be drastically
- reduced due to the incredibly high Yugoslavian currency
- inflation rate which is totally out of control...(I
- assume the negotiated prize money was in harder currency
- though.)
