   > I have lived in Naples for the past twenty years. As many of you know,there   
   are a lot of Jewish people in the city. Many of them are goodfriends of mine,   
   but at the same time I have seen SOOOO many examplesof Jews being mega cheap.   
   In very embarrassing    
   ways.I have seen:Jews do whatever they could to not put in the amount they   
   owed on a group bar tab.Jews not tip at a bar or restaurant (many many   
   times).Jews go out of their way to haggle over $1 with shop keepers.In college   
   I had often seen Jews fill    
   their book bags with food fromthe college cafeteria all you can eat section.   
   One got called out byan administrator and continued to do the same thing the   
   next day.(Fill book bag with apples, etc.)Jewish friends shared a cab with me   
   but only put in $4    
   toward the $25 ride. They threw the money at me and then ran out.I was at a   
   birthday lunch a few weeks back. Everyone owed $10 towardthe food and then   
   money toward their own drinks. We also wanted to payfor the birthday girl. A   
   Jewish guy in the group    
   was there with his girlfriend. She only had the food and a cup of tea ($10 +   
   $2 for tea +$3 tip = $15). She left $20 (She had to go early so she gave   
   herJewish boyfriend $20, $5 toward the birthday girl). When he paid, heonly   
   paid $15 for her and    
   pocketed the $5 extra! This guy makes $80kper year.Jewish person at a bar with   
   some friends and I took 20 minutes todecide between his favorite wine for $8   
   per glass or another wine for$7. He went through the process of asking the   
   bartender why one cost$   
   1 more than the other. After arguing with the bartender for 20minutes he   
   finally ordered the cheaper one he didn't like. Just tosave $1!!! He didn't   
   tip.A Jew asked how much it would be to add an egg to his dinner. It cost$1   
   more. He argued with the    
   waiter about how eggs only cost like 10cents. He eventually got frustrated and   
   didn't order anything. Over$1!!It goes on and on.Cheap clothes. etc.One Jewish   
   friend has no TV, no cable, no internet (steals from neighbor) a 8+ year old   
   laptop, lives in a    
   dump, grills on a 20 yearold grill he found in his backyard when he moved in,   
   never bringsgifts to parties, always eats as much as he can when people go   
   intogether on something. It is crazy.I don't mind much if a Jew is being cheap   
   in a way that only    
   hurts him/herself, such as living in a dump in Galesburg Il. But when theytry   
   to Jew people down, it is embarrassing. Especially when they makefine money.   
   It is like a game with many of them: Who can Jew the mostmoney out of others.   
   Who can be the    
   cheapest prick in the world?The question is: Why are Jews so damn cheap?   
      
   Unless of course, they are poor.  That could certainly change what   
    I have said.
