They died owing me money
An elderly Cardi took his little grandson for a walk round the local cemetery.
Pausing before one gravestone he said
"There lies a very honest man. He died owing me £50 but he struggled
to the end to pay off his debts, and if anyone has gone to heaven, he has."
They walked on a bit further and then came to another grave. The old man pointed
to the gravestone and said
"Now there's a different type of man altogether. He owed me £60
and he died without ever trying to pay me back. If anyone has gone to hell, he
has."
The little boy thought for a while and then said "You know, Grandpa,
you are very lucky."
"Why?" asked the old man in surprise.
"Well, whichever place you go to, you'll have some money to draw on."
