Numerous academicians of the Montenegrin Academy of Sciences and Arts, in addition to substantial "academic awards", also receive regular income from other budget units.
A simple calculation made by "Vijesti" shows that it is more profitable to be an academic than a Nobel Prize winner, and that only based on monthly allowances, and in the property records of members of the CANU Presidency, such as Secretary General Dragan Radonjić, Vice President Ljubiša Stanković and department secretaries Pavle Pejović and Niko Martinović, it can be seen that they regularly receive thousands of euros a year from the budget.
The current president Dragan K. Vukčević does not have a naturalized property record, nor does his predecessor Momir Đurović. CANU has a budget of 1,9 million euros this year, and last year almost 650 thousand euros were paid in monthly allowances. Research by "Vijesti" showed that despite the million-dollar budget, few academics have any recognition in the international scientific community.

>> When they become academics, they stop doing science
