There was once a couple who lived in Taverepalya.They had a happy married life. Rodger had worked all of his life and had saved most of his money for potential rainy days in the future. He was a really stingy when it came to his money or anything to do with it. He loved money more than just about anything. He came to know that he had been suffering from cancer which he had neglected and it was in its final stages. This brought great sorrow to the both of them. Just before he died, he asked to his wife to bury him in a casket along with all the money he had saved till then. His last words were, “I want to take my money with me 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 casket with him.
Well, one day he died. He was stretched out in the casket; the wife was sitting there in black next to her closest friend. When they finished the funeral ceremony, just before the undertakers got ready to close the casket, the wife said "Wait just a minute!” She had a box with her, which she came over with, and placed in the casket.
Then the undertakers locked the casket down and rolled it away. After the burial and departure of all friends and family, her closest friend came up to her and asked, "I hope you weren't crazy enough to put all that money in the casket with him."
She said, "Yes, I promised, I can't lie. I promised him that I was going to put that money in that casket with him." The friend turned to her in shock and awe wondering how she could have done such a silly and stupid thing.
"You mean to tell me you put every cent of his money in the casket with him?"
"Sure I did, " said the wife. "I got it all together, put it into my account and I wrote him a check."
Excellent Story ....
