An old man visited a doctor to seek advice on what he should do. The doctor gave him some instructions.

The old man shook his head and started to leave the office. The doctor said: "Sir, you forgot to pay me."

"Pay you for what?" asked the old man.

The doctor replied: "For my advice."

"No, sir, no, sir," the old man replied, "I am not going to take it."
