The miser knew he was dying and he wanted to take his $30,000 life savings with him when he passes away.
He summoned his 3 friends to his bedside. He knew he could trust them, but not completely as to entrust the entire sum to any one of them. So he split the savings amongst the 3 of them, $10,000 each, with instructions that they should put the money into his coffin when he was being buried. The 3 men, a priest, a policeman, and a lawyer, solemly agreed to do so.

The lawyer declared, "I am ashamed of the two of you." read more »
