In this episode of PennyWise, host Nat Cardona engages in a thought-provoking discussion with Chip Lupo, a writer and analyst for WalletHub, as they explore the evolving landscape of tipping in America. With 75% of Americans feeling that tipping has spiraled out of control, they dive deep into the cultural implications and the new norms surrounding gratuity in various service sectors. Chip shares insights on the traditional tipping percentages for services like dining, hair salons, and delivery, while also addressing the growing trend of tipping at self-service kiosks and other unexpected places.
Listeners will gain a clearer understanding of when and how much to tip, including guidelines for different service scenarios. They also discuss the ethical concerns surrounding tipping as a potential substitute for fair wages, prompting listeners to consider their own tipping practices and the pressures associated with them. Chip emphasizes the importance of tipping for good service while also acknowledging the discomfort that can arise when service falls short.
