Leaving money for the dead_英语司法笑话

a brooklyn lawyer, a used car salesman and a banker were gathered by a coffin containing the body of an old friend. in his grief, one of the three said, "in my family, we have a custom of giving the dead some money, so they?ll have something to spend over there."

they all agreed that this was appropriate. the banker dropped a hundred dollar bill into the casket, and the car salesman did the same. the lawyer took out the bills and wrote a check for $300.
