The old Money religion.

This is the chair within a London cigar shop thar was once used by Winston Churchill- a regular customer and equally regular late payer.

The rich shop in ALDI to save 5p on a can of beans. If they see a penny laying on the pavement they will pick it up. A poor person may not think it worth the bother. The do not need the penny of course, It is not even that they are obsessed with money. Rich people seem less materialistic than poor ones because they have fewer money worries. They save money on small things and spend large on luxuries such as this cigar shop.

This respect for small sums seems to be a form of religion. They respect small sums of money out of respect for money in general. They will buy quality when it pays to do so- but they will never just throw money away, not even a single penny.
