        I’d probably prefer to be on her squad. She would fund all the best gear and get all the safest quests

            She has a reputation for sharing the wealth, tipping wait staff with $100 bills, and giving the truck drivers for her tour $100,000 bonuses.

              The generosity of a $100 tip entirely depends on context. Waffle House? Yeah, it’s generous.

              But there are plenty of high end places where plates cost $400 each, the wine can easily be $5000 per bottle, and a $100 tip wouldn’t even cover the wait staff’s tip-out at the end of the night. I have 100% seen billionaire propaganda about “Mark Cuban tips waiter $1500, look how generous he is” when it was just a standard 15% tip on a $10k bill.

                  I don’t really understand scaling tips past a certain point. The service is generally the same whether it was a $1000 steak or a $20 steak. Unless it goes directly to the chef. Everything else is already compensated by the cost of the meal.

      I don’t think it’s so much as famous people getting to live in comfort, more those pesky tabloids, et al leaking the location of these rich fuckers, putting civilians, troops and army operations in danger.
