In Money:Whence It Came, Where It Went, John Kenneth Galbraith specifically relates how banking is different than any other profession. He relates how bankers are endlessly serious and contrasts it with Evelyn Waugh's Decline and Fall depiction of doctors being funny and even inebriated.

Will there ever appear in literature--or, ideally, in real life--a drunken banker? Is money slowly becoming fun? Will it ever?
