A very wealthy man lay near death. He called for his lawyer, his doctor, and his accountant. He told them that he did not feel good about leaving his wealth to his lazy no-good son and instead he wanted these three men to make sure his money was buried with him. He then gave each man a bundle containing $1,000,000 in cash with instructions that after his death in a few days, they were to deposit their bundles into the man's casket just before it was closed and sealed.

A week later he died. At his funeral, the last men to approach the casket were the lawyer, the doctor and the accountant. Each put a package into the casket. The casket was then sealed, the funeral proceeded and the man was buried.

Afterward the three men went to dinner together. As they conversed, the doctor made a confession. "You know I did a lot of extra work for that man for which I was never compensated. I made house calls, I responded to his pleas for help in the middle of the night on countless occasions. I have to confess that I kept some of that money as compensation for all the work I did for him."

Then it was the lawyer's turn. "You too? I tell ya, that man had me working 18 hours a day on some of his deals. I really should have charged him more than I did for all the messes I had to get him and his son out of over the years. I kept some of that money too."

The accountant was appalled. "I can't believe you would betray the trust of a long-time client like that! It's outrageous and you both should be ashamed of yourselves. I'll have you know that my package contained my personal check for the FULL $1,000,000!"
