Default Compound Interest

You may only think it's $1. If invested and left alone for 30 years, you'd end up with over $6, adjusted for inflation.

Now think about how much all those $1 tips every day add up.

Good thing my self worth doesn't depend on what others may or may not think of my personal budgeting practices.

It’s not about running away from the issue, it’s about not perpetuating it. This same tipping logic would eventually mean that every service personnel should be tipped, whether or not the service is done, i.e. read how tipping started here in America.



Then try to putting your notice towards something of worth.
nah, people are still going to think you're a cheap f@#4. It only takes a millisecond of thought. It is not like that is preventing us from saving the children in Africa or something. The whole issue here is you just don't want to be noticed so you can feel less guilty about it. We notice you.

Who cares. Don’t tip if you don’t want. I don’t know your financial situation. If 6 dollars on a 4 day is going to break your bank, that sucks. But as a society, others will judge you for not tipping. No way getting around that one.

Thanks for this. It clearly demonstrates the myopic, inane point of view I was trying to convey.

I’m not an equal opportunity tipper, if you’ve got boobs I’ll probably tip.

Well, honesty with reality!

I don’t get it. Who actually gives a f@&k? Tip or don’t. Just don’t be a d$ck.

Why this thread keeps living is beyond me....
