Inheritance

Two friends meet in the street.  One looked forlorn and almost on the
verge of
tears.  The other man said, "Hey, how come you look like the whole world
caved
in?"

The sad fellow said, "Let me tell you.  Three weeks ago, an uncle died
and
left me forty thousand dollars."

"That's not bad."

"Hold on, I'm just getting started.  Two weeks ago, a cousin I never
knew
kicked the bucket and left me eighty-five thousand free and clear."

"I'd like that."

"Last week my grandfather passed away.  I inherited almost a quarter of
a
million."

"The how come you look so glum?"

"This week - nothing!"
