Tips For Us to Live a Healthy And Comfortable Life DEinsteins $1.5 Million Tip to a BellboyIn addition to being a scientist, a philosopher （哲學(xué)家），and somewhat of a funny guy, Albert Einstein was something even more admirable: a good tipper. We know t

24、his because a piece of paper the Nobel Prize winner gave a bellboy as a tip sold for more than $1.5 million at auction （拍賣）.As the story goes, Einstein was traveling to Japan to give a lecture series when he found out hed been awarded the Nobel Prize in physics.

30、the worlds largest Einstein collection at Hebrew University.Whether the bellboy was able to benefit from Einsteins happiness theory is unclear, but the notes did eventually bring some joy to one of his relatives when they were sold the second note brought in $250,000, while the first one that lists
