      dollars a year. I live alone,
      I spend only a little money, and I
      save a lot. After thirty-one years
    at the bank, I have four hundred
    fifty thousand dollars.
F:   But, Mr. Jackson, four hundred
    fifty thousand dollars in a box
    under your bed?
M :   I'm afraid of banks.
N:   Sam, how much money does Mr.
