Cash in the Casket
There was a man who worked all of his life and had saved his money and was a real miser when it came to his money. He loved money more than just about anything.
Just before he died, he said to his wife. 'Now listen. When I die, I want you to take all my money and put it in the casket with me. Because I want to take my money to the afterlife with me.'
And so he got his wife to promise him with all of her heart that when he died, she would put all of the money in the casket with him.
Well one day he died. He was stretched out in the casket, the wife was sitting there in black, and her friend was sitting next to her. 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 with her, she came over with the box and put it in the casket. Then the undertakers locked the casket down, and they rolled it away. So her friend said, 'Girl,I know you weren't fool enough to put all that money in there with that man.
She said, 'Listen, I'm a Christian, I can't lie. I promised him that I was gonna put that money in that casket with him.'
'You mean to tell me you put that money in the casket with the man?
'I sure did,' said the wife. 'I wrote him a check.'

I want to see him try to cash that check. Ha Ha.
Beautiful! Here's a similar joke I was just told by a woman who works at the Home Shopping Network Outlet in the jewelry division:
John was a spendthrift. He usually made just enough money to cover the bills, but his bills were often from gambling debts or spur-of-the-moment purchases.
John finally died and went to that great Vegas in the sky. His lawyer met with his wife shortly afterwards to give her three envelopes, which he didn't know the contents of.
About a month later, John's lawyer ran into the widow. "How are you doing, Teresa?" asked John. Teresa smiled, and assured him that she was well.
"You know," said John, "I'm curious: what was in those three envelopes?"
"The first envelope was all of John's unpaid bills," she answered. "The second had just enough cash in there to cover them. The third had some cash in it with a note asking me to use the money to buy him an engraved stone."
Teresa flashed her hand out, which had a massive diamond displayed on it. She twitched her finger about. "See?" she said. "Here's the stone. If you look closely, I've had his name engraved right there."
Ha ha ha..that was good :)
I love it. Great story.
