A preacher was told by his doctor that he had only a few weeks left to live.

He went home feeling sad and when his wife heard the news she asked him "Honey if there is anything I can do to make you happy, tell me" .

The preacher answered "You know dear there's that box in the kitchen cabinet with what you always called your 'little secret' in it and you said you never would want me to open it as long as you lived. Now that I'm about to go home with the Lord, why don't you show me what's in that secret box of yours?"

The preacher's wife got out the box and opened the lid it contained 100,000$ and three eggs.

"What are those eggs doing in the box?" The preacher asked.

"Well Honey" she replied every time your sermon was really bad I put an egg in the box"

The preacher had been preaching for 40 years and seeing only three eggs in the box he felt very proud of himself and it warmed his soul. "And what about the 100,000$?" He asked.

"Oh you see" she whispered softly "Everytime there were a dozen eggs in the box I sold them".
