Do You Count Your Money In Front Of A Client?

I don't understand this strange obsession with not wanting to being reminded that you're working by not counting your fee?

If the money is sorted out as quickly as possible then it can be put away whilst the client (punter) makes themself comfortable. By the time you return the matter is forgotten about and you have both moved onto what you are doing next.

Personally I believe that if you do not count the money in front of a client you are leaving yourself open to be conned. The downside to this is not that you lose some money but you will lose the client as he will know what he has done and that you will know, so probbaly not come back.
