Marx Brothers routine:

Spaulding: How much do you get a year?
Ravelli: Oh, for playing I getta $12 million a year.
Spaulding: I see...What do you get for not playing?
Ravelli: $20 million a year.
Spaulding: Well, clip me off a piece of that. And what do you get for not coming to practice?
Ravelli: You couldn't afford it... Heh... You see, if I don't practice, I don't play. And, if I don't play, that runs into money.
