"It is a mistake to assume that the man who has ten thousand goats cares less about losing one than the man who has only one hundred."

My brother has about fifty times as much* money as me (his idea of a Vanagon is 36 feet long and has a big Cat diesel in back, and weighs ~26,000 lb (but its load capacity is less than a Vanagon, I think). He thinks ten per cent is a good tip...

*actually since I have negative net worth perhaps he has minus-fifty times as much...
