Willie Sutton rule

Definition

That one should focus on obvious, high-yield activities instead of wasting time on less fruitful ones. Named after the notorious US criminal William Sutton (1901-80) who was charged with over a hundred bank robberies and who, when asked why he favored banks as his targets, is widely quoted to have said, "Because that's where the money is."
