It can take a lifetime to get good at something, but a few hours of work after that lifetime generally doesn't cost much. Certainly not more than 5 figures.


A man sails his smoking yacht into a repair shop. The head mechanic goes over with a hammer and slams it against the side of the engine. The engine roars back to life, and the smoke subsides.

He submits a bill for $200,000. It is itemized as such:

- $1 - Fifteen seconds of labor; striking with hammer

- $199,999 - Knowing where to strike

And the game will still sell very well anyway. Problem solved.
