you should have nipped that conversation in the bud. did you hear about the ex-wallstreet trader who quit the rat race and went to live in the african bush? all of his friends had secretly predicted that he would be unable to sustain his lofty lifestyle in such an impoverished land, and thus were quite shocked when he announced his extreme pleasure and intent to remain in africa for the rest of his life. "but how is it possible for you to make a living there in the manner that you are accustomed to?", a friend inquired. "oh", the ex-trader replied, "i have a job circumcising elephants." "but surely this line of work can't pay you well", shot back the friend. "correct," replied the man, "the pay's not much, but the tips sure are big!"
