Imagine a pile of $1,000,000 bills at one end of town and another pile $100,000 at the other end. All the townsfolk have to run to claim their free money. Which way do you run

Imagine two orchards, one orchard is very fertile and provides 10000 apples a year. The other provides only 500.

Which is the easiest to get some from?

With 1000 townsfolk clambering for their share of the 10000 apples, that orchard will be full of people very soon, so the small orchard will be a good choice, sometimes.
