A wealthy miser who was very sick needed to see a specialist.  He was appalled, however, that the world-renowned doctor charged $500 for the first visit and $250 for subsequent visits.  Still, it was his health that was at stake.  So he went to the doctor’s office and cordially said: “Well, Doctor. Good to see you. Here I am, again.”  The doctor had met this type before.  He made a great show of examining the patient with minute thoroughness, then said, “Just continue the same treatment as before!”
