An old man, on his death-bed, told his (very) young and beautiful wife,
"Honey, you say you married me because you loved me and not my wealth. Honour your promise, and bury me with all my money."
The wife swore she'd honour his wishes.
The day he was buried, as they were about to close the lid, with tears in her eyes, she dropped a small metal box into the casket.
The widow's friend, leaned over to her and said 'Hey, now I know you aren't a stupid woman. Tell me you didnt honour that old fool's request.'
She looked at her friend. 'I made him a promise and I kept it'.
'Wow', said her friend. 'I'm shocked.'
'Yup', continued the widow. 'I put all his money into my bank account and wrote him a cheque for the entire amount. If he can cash it, he can have it.'
