福克斯新闻 给小费的习惯侧面反映个人收入

Would your server give you a good grade on your gratuity¹? Matt Schultz is with CreditCards.com and says our tipping tendencies in restaurants come down to income: "The more money you have, the more likely to leave on the table at the end of the night."

你的侍者会看好你对他服务的感激吗？来自CreditCards.com的Matt Schultz表示，我们就餐时给消费的习惯归根结底与我们的收入有关：“收入越高，在晚上用餐之后给小费的可能性越大。”

Republican baby boomer men in the northeast leave the biggest tip. Credit and debit² card users surveyed leave an average of 20 percent at restaurants. And nearly 20 percent of those polled said sometimes they don't leave the server a tip at all.

东北地区的共和党婴儿潮一代给的小费最多。接受调查的信用卡和借记卡用户给的小费平均在餐费的20％。将近20％的受访者表示他们有时根本不会给服务生留小费。
