The Loyal Wife

There was a man who had worked all of his life, had saved all of his money, and as a real miser when it came to his money. Just before he died, he said to his wife, 'When I die, I want you to take all my money and put it in the
casket with me. 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, he died . . ..
He was stretched out in the casket, his 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.
Her friend said, 'I know you weren't fool enough to
put all that money in
there with your husband.'
The loyal wife replied 'Listen, I can't go back on my
word. I promised
him that I was going to put that money in that casket
with him.'
'You mean to tell me you put that money in the casket
with him !!! ?'
'I sure did' said the wife. 'I got it all together,
put it into my
account and wrote him a cheque. If he can cash it, he
can spend it.'

Moral of the story: *Women are cleverer than
Men*......
