not in any of my Pleco dicts.
500 Common Chinese Proverbs (which I'll just call 500P from now on) gives two examples which are too long for me to type, but one about not caring about losing at majiang because "anyway, the money stays in the family so it doesn't matter" and the other about corruption not being a serious problem (!) because the corrupting money stays in the country.
Diff:
# 肉爛在鍋裏 肉烂在锅里 [rou4 lan4 zai4 guo1 li3] /the meat melts inside the pot (idiom)/it's all in the family/
+ 肉爛在鍋裏 肉烂在锅里 [rou4 lan4 zai4 guo1 li3] /lit. the meat falls apart as it stews, but it all stays in the pot (idiom)/fig. some of us may lose or gain, but in any case the benefits don't go to outsiders/
