I’m Jewish and not cheap but a lot of fellow Jews I know live up to the stereotype. Absolutely no hesitation to buy a new car but if their McDonald’s order takes too long they’ll ask for a refund.

I used to deal with the Jewelry people from NYC, every transaction required negotiating and a discount. Most people learned to pad their pricing then give a discount, they are none the wiser.

After Jennie chimed in with a comment about how her father was "cheap," Bench was heard yelling, "He was Jewish!"

You can stab someone in the throat but don’t you dare make fun of Jews or blacks.

Did you hear about the Jewish tire company?

Their tires will not only stop on a dime, they will pick it up.

At the inauguration of the first Jewish President of the United States, his mother, sitting in the front row, turns to the lady on her right and says "That's my son and his brother's a doctor".

My only problem with him is that he apologized.

loved it a few years back at some gathering of HoFers and a small group was chanting "we want Rose!," I guess he was a little too close to a hot mic and was heard saying "and you can have him"

No one can take a joke these days. Don Rickles must be rolling over in his grave.

I love being called cheap.

I don't see why Jewish people are disturbed by it, because its true.


I agree.
I always correct the accusation.
I'm thrifty, not stingy.
That is a Fact.
You don't go from a cotton patch, pulling a cotton sack as a teenager, to retiring at age 56 without being thrifty.

The Jews wandered in the desert for 40 years because someone dropped a shekel. Jus’ sayin’.

Stereotypes exist for a reason. No need to be a pussy about it.

Do you know what happens when a Jew with an erection walks into a wall? He bumps his nose.
