Look at the size of that wad! It's huge! And it is all 100 dollar bills! How much you carrying there, Les? $5000? $10,000? $20,000? More?
As we have seen, the networks declined to report that their CEOs including CBS CEO Les Moonves who earned over $54 million this past year were "overpaid." Perhaps they were embarrassed to report this. However, even more embarrassing is that Moonves is so cheap that he used a big wad of hundred dollar bills to stiff a restaurant parking valet out of a tip as you can see in the video on the Page Six report of the New York Post:

Oh, come now - who among us has never been stymied by an immense wad of $100 bills when attempting social intercourse with one’s inferiors? Happens to me ten, twelve times a day.
Cheap bastard and undoubtedly a liberal too. He could have always asked for change. The valet would be happy with $20 tip.
Valet: Oh that’s OK sir, I can make change. I carry a huge wad of 50s just for people like you...
A CEO somehow can’t figure out to hand a valet $100 and ask for $80 back? I’m sure Moonves has been down this road many times before and uses the hundred dollar bill excuse regularly to stiff the “peons.”
It’s most likely a bunch of one’s with a 100 on the top....
Rich people often think everything should be free for them.
Ah, the old ‘carry a huge wad of $100 bills so you can stiff the valet’ ploy.
Personally I've solved the issue by carrying around little leather pouches filled with gold florins. But I'm gonna want the F-250 sparkling when I get back.
Yep I hate when that happens and all I have is a wad of C-notes.
The problem is that the largest bill extant is $100. If there were a $1000 bill or better yet a $10,000 bill available, then it wouldn’t be such an encumbering wad, but a slim packet that could easily fit in a gold money clip.
I’ve often marveled at how many of the very rich seem to be immense cheapskates. If I had earned 54 million bones last year, I’d be handing Benjamins out to valets left and right, 3 or 4 at a time. Not liked I’d miss it.
OK, OK, I don't carry a wad of $100s around either!
Cause and effect. They are rich partly because they were tightwads in their businesses. Lifelong habits die hard.
If the jerk- is really that flush, he can just give a $100 tip. It’s not significant to him.
I read about a parking valet who parked Frank Sinatra’ s car. When he brought the car up, Frank asked “Hey kid, what’s the biggest tip you ever got?” “$100,” the young man replied. Sinatra handed him $1000, got in his car and drove off. I would bet that was probably one of the coolest things that ever happened to him, and he probably told that story a million times.
