    A: How much shall we charge for an admission ticket to the music festival?

    B: Forget about money from the sale of admission tickets. That’s peanuts. The big money will come from advertising.

    Note: In colloquialism, peanut is sometimes used to describe someone who is small in size. At 5.5 pounds, for example, the baby is a peanut, so small and cute. In terms of money, “peanuts” represent small, insignificant sums. One hundred yuan used to be a lot of money, for instance — enough to last a family of four a month in the early 1980s. That’s peanuts today. Today, it is not enough to pay for a meal for a family of four at an average restaurant. So, “that’s peanuts” means “that’s a small sum” and “that’s not a big deal.”
