The miserly millionaire called a family conference.   “I’m placing a box of money in the attic,” he said.   “When I die, I intend to grab it on my way up to heaven.   See to it that no one touches it until it’s my time to go.” The family respected his wishes.   After his death the millionaire’s wife looked in the attic.   The box was still there.   “The fool!” she said.    “I told him he should have put it in the basement.” -Gene Jennings Since we do not know what we will merit it is best to live a life of integrity.   Since we cannot go backward, let’s begin a anew.

When Dan found out he was going to inherit a fortune when his sickly father died, he decided he needed a woman to enjoy it with. So, one evening he went to a singles bar where he spotted the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.  Her natural beauty took his breath away.  “I may look like just an ordinary man,” he said as he walked up to her, “but in just a week or two, my father will die, and I’ll inherit 20 million dollars.” Impressed, the woman went home with him that evening and, three days later, she became his stepmother. Women are way smarter than men!!!
