The Nobel Prize is an interesting event. The recipients go from being venerated by a few hundred or thousand of their peers to being celebrities. For the rest of their life they're often introduced as a "Nobel Prizewinner", their opinion is sought by media & the famous, etc.

Agreed all around. I feel like Nobel is more like winning the lottery/becoming famous, in a way that is kind of weird and exogenous. Grad student -> asst prof is a real life transition tons of people make and (plausibly) expect to make for a long time.
