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, So as a token would you 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 10 $100 bills onto the chest
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 checkbook, wrote a check for $3,000, put it into his father's coffin, and took the $2,000 cash
He later went on to become a member of Congress.
