Frasier: Well... The notion of investing is sound. In fact, I have $500 here in my pocket that Lilith has entrusted me to invest in a gilt-edged bond for little Frederick's future.
Carla: So Lilith controls the purse strings in your family?
Frasier: Oh, yes, with the eagle eye. It's a good thing, too. I mean, you know me, left to my own devices, wastrel that I am, I might blow 2 bucks a week on a lousy beer.
Norm: Well, investing sounds good on paper, but the problem is with inflation, you know, when those bonds mature, that money will be worthless. So little Freddy will lose money on the deal.
Frasier: Oh, well, screw him. It'll teach him life is real.
