Penzias and Wilson can trace their Nobel Prize back to cleaning pigeon poop out of a microwave antenna feed horn.

1. Find out ways to solve important world issues

2. Use various methods to formulate and fix the issues

3. Write a paper on how to fix said issues

4. Get your noble prize

Do you have any moral issues regarding stealing one?

What do you mean "moral issues"

[ErGingerbreadMandude]

Well you could go the Yasser Arafat or Henry Kissinger route. Kill a whole lot of people and then stop killing them.

Favorite suggestion thus far.
Sounds right up my alley. How many people do you recon I will have to kill before I stop killing them to have a shot at getting a Nobel?

Step 1.  Become smarter than 99.9% of the population.

Step 2.  Become more accomplished than 99.9% of the population

Step 3.  Become more lucky than 99.9% of the above.

Step 4.  Collect your Nobel prize.

Now go get it.

Pfft.
Nerd.

This year it's apparently between Trump, Merkel, and the Pope. Seriously, I don't follow this stuff anymore.

Maybe we need something akin to an 'anti' Noble prize too. Do something spectacularly annoying enough to really set humanity back significantly and get an 'Anti-NP'.

Might even want too issue some retroactive ones:

*whoever first decided to make TV commercials louder than the show they're in

*Ford Pinto exploding gas tank

*Chia pets

*Bernie Madoff

*Waterworld

Vehicle anti-innovations could be its own anti-Nobel. Throw the suddenly-accelerating Audi 5000 in with the Pinto. I dig it!
