LOL Serge -- tipping well is a sign of appreciation, not of being rich... if the service is good. Tipping well for bad service is foolish. Of course I spent a few years bartending and waiting tables in school, and everyone with an expense account tips better, that I can tell you
Not my first memory of money, but one of my fonder thoughts about it --
If you took all the money in the world and parceled it out equally to all its' inhabitants, it wouldn't take long for the haves to have it again and the have nots to be broke.
