Vickers was very stingy.He hated spending money.Whenever he had to buy something,he always wanted to pay less money,even for the cheapest things.If he wanted to buy a bottle of beer,for example,and the shopkeeper asked for $2,Vickers would say,“Make it $1.9 and I'll buy it.”
Although the shopkeepers didn't like Vickers,sometimes they had to agree with him.They thought,“If I make it $1.9,the man will be happy,and it won’t hurt me very much.” In this way,Vickers saved a few cents(美分)here and a few cents there,and he had saved several hundred dollars by the end of the year.
One day he had a bad toothache and had to go to see the dentist.The dentist looked at the tooth and said,“This tooth will have to come out.”
“How much will I have to pay?” Vickers asked.
“Forty dollars.” the dentist said.

“About two minutes.” the dentist said.
Vickers could not believe what he was hearing.“Forty dollars for two minutes’ work!” he shouted,“That's robbery(搶劫).”

“Daddy,how much money do you make an hour?” “If you must know,I make $20 an hour.”
“Oh,” the little boy replied,with his head down.He thought for a moment,looked up and said,“Daddy,could you lend me $10?”
