On their wedding night, the young groom approached his new wife and asked for $20.00 for their first lovemaking encounter. In her highly aroused state, she readily agreed. This scenario was repeated each time they made love, for more than 30 years, with her thinking that it was a cute way for him to afford incidentals that he needed.
Arriving home around noon one day, he was surprised to find her in a very drunken state. During the next few minutes, she explained that her employer was going through a process of corporate downsizing, and she had been let go. It was unlikely that, at the age of 59, she'd be able to find another position that paid anywhere near what she'd been earning, and therefore, they were financially ruined.
Calmly, her husband handed her a bank book which showed more than thirty years of steady deposits and interest totaling nearly $1 million. Then he showed her certificates of deposits issued by the bank which were worth over $2 million, and informed her that they were one of the largest depositors in the bank. He explained that for the more than three decades he had "charged" her for sex, these holdings had multiplied and these were the results of his savings and investments.
Faced with evidence of cash and investments worth over $3 million, his wife was so astounded she could barely speak, but finally she found her voice and blurted out, "If I'd had any idea what you were doing, I would have given you all my business!"
That's when she shot her. You know, sometimes, women just don't know when to keep their mouths shut.
