Let's say I hire a plumber because of his plumbing expertise and he bills me $35 and I pay him with a $50 bill and he gives me back $10 in change. He insists he's right about this.

I am now completely justified in worrying about whether the pipes he just installed were actually made of butter.

Really? Is that easy? Happens quite often to really believe something and be wrong. Maybe you both are right and the $5 bill is on the floor?
