if i was rich like that and just trying to get some grub, i would legit walk into restaurants with some hundos just to discretely hand them to servers, etc. same with any tradies i encountered who were doing work.
full disclosure, i re-watched Casino last week. there's a whole sequence/montage of this that is mesmerizing.
but honestly, it just seems like a good idea. even if the service sucks or whatever, who cares. if you're that caked up, it is the easiest way to build a little goodwill around you. i wouldn't walk around with a phat roll or flash it, because that seems a bit reckless. but learning how to shake hands with someone and slyly put a folded hundo in their hand seems cool too lol.
for a lot of people, that's like a full day's net take home. which means whatever else they pull in that day is bonus. and if its cash, they don't have to declare it lol.
When they run his payment, do they have to say, "thanks, Obama" ?
