A man wanted to literally die with his money, so he gave a third of it to a priest, a third to a doctor, and a third to his lawyer to bury him with.

As they were driving back from the funeral, the lawyer inquired as to what the priest had said. With tears in his eyes, the priest admitted that he had to confess that he had spent some of the money on an orphanage so that some starving children would not go hungry and that he regrets what he had done, but that he had no option. The doctor then admits that he, too, had to inform him that one of his patients required surgery that he could not perform alone and that he spent some of the money to save the person’s life. The lawyer looks at them with scorn and says, “How could you? You have betrayed a man’s last and dying request!”
