Ok here it goes

A old man was talking with his wife one day. This old man was very wealthy, but very greedy. Well the wife told him one day, "You won't take that money with you when you die." The old man snapped back, "Yeah I will I will put all my money in a trunk in the attic and when I die and go to heaven I will take it with me." Well it just so happened that one day the old man keels over and dies. Well the whole family comes to the house to comfort the woman. The woman tells one of her sons, "Go upstairs and check that trunk were your dad put all his money and see if it's still there." Well the young man runs upstairs and checks and the trunk with all the money is still there. The young man runs down the stairs and tells his mother, "Mom, the money is still there." The woman replied sort of knowingly, "Well I knew he wouldn't take that money with him." "Why?", the young man asked. "Because he didn't put it in the basement."
