There was a man who had worked all of his life and had saved all of his money.
He was a real miser 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 coffin with me. I wanna take my money to the afterlife."
So he got his wife to promise him with all her heart that when he died, she would put all the money in the coffin with him.
Well, one day he died.
He was stretched out in the coffin, the wife was sitting there in black next to her closest friend. When they finished the ceremony, just before the undertakers got ready to close the coffin, the wife said "Wait just a minute!" she had a shoe box with her, she came over with the box and placed it in the coffin with her husband.
Then the undertakers locked the coffin lid and rolled it away.
Her friend said, "I hope you weren't crazy enough to put all that money in there with him?"
She said, "Yes, I promised. I'm a good christian, I can't lie. I promised him that I was going to send that money with him to the afterlife."
"You mean to tell me you put every penny of his money in the coffin?"
"I sure did, " said the wife. "I got it all together.... put it into my account and I wrote him a cheque."
