Yes, that's the difference between people like Fred Goodwin and Philip Green and, say,
Richard Branson (although he's an Old Stoic and probably doesn't have a cockney
accent).

I was speaking of people in general not the subset of the terminally gullible
who are especially susceptible to tax dodging smiling bull**** merchants
such as Richard Branson.
