The very idea of taking money with oneself to the afterlife came to him after he took part in the most peculiar of cases. His friend, also a rich man, entrusted a will to him and his two other friends. In it, he asked to be buried with all his money, three billion dollars. The funeral took place and the body was laid in the ground with three massive chests.

After the ceremony, the three lawyers went to the side. The first one had a confession to make - he took a quarter of the money for himself. "I couldn't let all this money go to waste!", he said with sorrow. "I took even more", the second one said, "I'm sure it will be more useful in my hands." But the third one looked disgusted. "How could you disrespect your friend?! It's appaling!", he shouted. "So what, you're saying you left all the money in there?", they asked, disbelief in their voice. "Of course I did, you frauds!"

"I wrote him a check for the entire billion!"
