The Jelly Bean Jar theory is that for the first year of your marriage you put a jelly bean into a jar everytime you have a nookie, then starting in the second year, take one out every time you have a nookie, and that for the rest of your married life you'll probably never run out of jelly beans to take out of the jar.
I think it was Pratt who said "if you got all the money in the world and threw it up into the sky, it would eventually fall and end up in the same hands".
