A rich man's joke is always funny proverb
People are always inclined to flatter or please a rich man by laughing at his joke which may not be a very good one.
Everyone at the table always flatter the boss by praising his humor. A rich man's jokes are always funny.
To flatter and treat one extremely respectful to a powerful person in order to get favor
To try to gain one's favor, attention, or affection especially through flattering
1. A flattery.
2. Persuade someone by flattering them.
"A rich man's joke is always funny" is quoted from a poem written by Thomas Edward Brown.
Money is honey, my little sonny,
And a rich man’s joke is always funny.
Do you see anything wrong?
If a person has the devil's own luck, he or she has extremely good luck.
A: Yesterday I won a $10 million lottery jackpot and today I won a car in a draw.
B: You have the devil's own luck.
