This is a story about Isaac, the stingiest man in the world. He was so cheap he wouldn't buy anything unless he absolutely had to and even then would buy the worst and least expensive.
Very stingy dude.
Well, after 55 years of marriage, Isaac's wife, Sarah, died.
When the time came to place the information in the official obituary, the man in charge told him they charged 5 dollars per word.
"Fine," Isaac said reluctantly "Put the following: Sarah Died"
"No, no" the manager of the paper said. "I'm sorry, sir, but there is a 6 word minimum. Besides, sir, you should add something else. Something nice, something that makes a reference to her life, that says something about her. Also, you should add the year of birth and death."
"No," Isaac said stubbornly, "Just put Sarah Died"
"Sorry, sir. It's a 6 Word minimum"
The discussion went on and on until Isaac finally realized that he would have to yield to the paper's regulations.
"Fine," he said. "Let me think about it. I'll call you back."
Two hours later, Isaac dialed the paper again.
"I got it!" he said, "Put down the following: Sarah Died, Honda Civic For Sale"
