White gold at funeral?
A father told his 3 sons when he sent them to the university:
"I feel it's my duty to provide you with the best possible education, and
you do not owe me anything for that. However, I want you to appreciate it.
As a token, please each put $1,000 into my coffin when I die."
And so it happened. His sons became a doctor, a lawyer and a
financial planner, each very successful financially.
When their father's time had come and they saw their father in the coffin,
they remembered his wish.
First, it was the doctor who put 20 X $50 notes on the chest of the
deceased.
Then, came the financial planner, who also put $1,000 there.
Finally, it was the heartbroken lawyer's turn. He dipped into his pocket,
took out his cheque book, wrote a cheque for $3,000, put it under his
father's body, took the $2,000 cash and closed the
coffin's lid.......
He went on to become a member of Parliament.
