WISDOM OF AGE

An Interview with An 80-year-old Woman--
the local
news station was interviewing an
80-year-old lady because she had just gotten
married -- for the fourth time.
The interviewer asked her questions about her
life, what it felt like to be marrying again at 80,
and then about her new husband's occupation.
'He's a funeral director,' she answered. He then
asked her if she wouldn't mind telling him a little
about her first three husbands and what they did
for a living.
She paused for a few moments, explaining that
she'd first married a banker when she was in her
early 20s, then a circus ringmaster when in her
40s, later on a preacher in her 60s, and now in
her 80s, a funeral director.The interviewer looked
at her and asked why she had married four men
with such diverse careers.
She smiled and explained, 'I married one for
the money, two for the show, three to get ready,
and four to go!!'
