Loving
Money Too Much
There
was a man who liked money very much. He worked all of his life and wanted to
save all of his money for his own future. He was a real miser when it came to
his money. He loved money more than just about anything.
Even,
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. I wanna take my
money to the afterlife." So he asked his wife to promise him with all her
heart that when he died, she would put all the money in the casket with him.
Well,
one day, he really died. Then he was stretched out in the casket. The wife was
sitting there in black clothes next to her closest friend. When they finished
the ceremony, just before the undertakers got ready to close the casket, the
wife said "Wait just a minute!"
She
had a box in her hands. She came over with the box and placed it in the casket.
After that the undertakers locked the casket down and rolled it away. Not long
after that, her friend said, "I hope you were not crazy enough to put all
that money in the casket."
The
wife turned to her friend and replied; "Yes, because I have
promised." Then she continued; "I can't lie. I promised him that I
was going to put that money in that casket with him." Feeling shocked, her
friend said; "You mean that you have put every cent of his money in the
casket with him?" Then the wife answered; "Surely I did. I got it all
together, put all the money into my account and I just wrote him a check."
