He Demanded His Wife To Bury Him With All Of His Money… So This Is What
She Did Instead
He worked hard every day of his life, which left
him feeling entitled to the money he had earned. He felt no desire to give it
away. He wanted to keep it to himself.
Guided by that line of thinking, when it came time
for him to ask a dying wish, he asked his wife to bury him with the remainder
of his money. She was not into the idea of granting him his miserly wish, so
she came up with another brilliant idea.
“There was a man who had worked all of his life and
has saved all of his money,” his widow wrote. “He was a real cheapskate when it
came to his money. He loved money more than just about anything, and just
before he died, he said to his wife, ‘Now listen, when I die I want you to take
all my money and place it in the casket with me. Because I want to take all my
money to the after life.’
She promised him that she would bury him with all
his money in the casket with him. And then he died.
As the ceremony was coming to a close, the
undertakers began to close his casket. Before they could his wife yelled out
“Wait a minute!” She had a shoebox with her, which she placed in his casket.
The undertakers locked the casket and rolled it away.
Her friend said to her, ‘I hope you weren’t crazy
enough to put all that money in there with that stingy old man.’
She said, ‘Yes, I promised. I’m a good Christian, I
can’t lie. I promised him that I was to put that money in that casket with
him.’
‘You mean to tell me you put every cent of his
money in the casket with him?’
‘I sure did,’ said the widow. ‘I got it all
together, put it into my account and I wrote him a check.’
Clever!
