What do you think about the cheap Scot stereotype? 
^ I think it’s definitely rooted in fact although the complexity people (read: the English) usually ignore is that it’s a cheapness that’s based on value rather than a lack of generosity or a desire to live a miserly existance like Vandy.
A Scotsman just will not pay over the odds for something and will always look to extract value or get a good deal beyond the point where an Englishman would let the views of others curtail his sense of value. An Englishman would rather get the raw end of a deal than appear uncouth. Scots usually care more about having money than they do about appearing to have money.
