When Sarah’s husband died suddenly, she was left with only $50,000. After paying all the expenses, she told her sister, she was all but broke. “How can that be?” her sister asked. “What happened to the money?” Sarah explained that she had to pay a $15,000 hospital bill, $5,000 for the funeral and burial, and the rest for the memorial stone. Making a quick calculation, her sister exclaimed “What? $30,000 for the memorial stone? What was it made of? How big is it?” Extending her left hand, Sarah replied “Three carats.”
