An old adage?

[Joel S. Berson]

FBI Director Robert Mueller is quoted as saying about the possibility
of fraud in bailout funding, "There is an old adage: Where there is
money to be made, fraud is not far behind, like bees to honey."

At the very least, a mixed adage; at the most, no old?

(Boston Globe, June 3, By.)
