The Lottery

There once was an old man who used to buy the lottery every single day for his whole life, and never won. One day, he had a heart attack and was rushed to the hospital; before he could see the winning lotto numbers on TV. His wife saw the numbers, and realized that he had just won the MegaMillions.

At the hospital, the mans wife didn't want to tell her husband that he had just won the lotto, because she was worried that his weak heart couldn't handle all the excitement and that he might die. Instead, she asked their local priest to go tell her husband the news as subtlety as possible, without causing him to have another heart attack.

So the priest goes and sits down next to the man and asks him, "You've been buying the lottery for decades, and you've never won. What if, one day, you did win. Millions of dollars. What would you possibly do with all that money?".

The man replies, "I would have donated it all to the Church". The priest then had a heart attack, and died.
