$1,000,000

An older man lying on his death bed motions for his wife to come over to him. He says to her,"You know the end is near honey and I have 1 final request. I have over 1 million dollars stashed away in the attic rafters. Would you see to it that I take the money to the grave with me?" She tells him that it will be done.
2 days later he dies and the arrangements are made. While the funeral is taking place she tells her friend of her late husbands request. Her friend asks her if she is going to follow it through. She replied, "Of course, that is what he wanted." The friend, looking amazed, asks her, "Are you stinkin' crazy? What are you thinking?"
The widow then says to her friend, "Look, I took the money down to the bank, deposited it, and then I wrote him a check!"
