My friend, a single guy lived at home with his father and worked in the family business. He knew that he would inherit a fortune once his sickly father died.
Dave wanted two things: to learn how to invest his inheritance, and to find a wife to share his fortune.
One evening at an investment meeting, he spotted the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Her natural beauty took his breath away .
"I may look like just an ordinary man," he said to her, "but in just a few years, my father will die, and I'll inherit 100 million dollars."
Impressed, the woman obtained his business card. Two weeks later, she became his stepmother.
Women are so much better at estate planning than men.
A Russian joke my grandmother once told me. I hope it works in English.
A man sits at the deathbed of his mother-in-law. She suffers very much and cries in agony: "Oh I'm dying!" "It hurts" "I'm gonna die soon" She stops for a seconds and says: "Well at least the weather is nice today"
The man says: "hey dear, don't get distracted!"
What do you do if you miss your mother in law?
...Take aim and fire again. :)
I always know when my mother-in-law is coming over because the mice throw themselves on the traps.
Three guys were beating up my mother-in-law. My wife told me to go and help but I thought three was enough. ( "great idea, she won't stand a chance against four of us"
My favorite Russian joke that one of my friends from Moldova told me was "if you are a pessimist, you learn Chinese. If you are an optimist, you learn English. If you are a realist, you buy a Kalashnikov."
Another Russian. A man is tried for a murder of his mother in law. The prosecutor asks the man, ‘Why did your MIL die?’ The man says, ‘she ate some poisonous mushrooms.’ P: ‘But why did she have bruises on her face’. The man: ‘she refused to eat them’.
Two Russian Soldiers are brought in front of a German Firing Squad.
Ready Aim,.....Suddenly the Commandant rushes forward waving a document. Wait, Stop he shouts.
We have decided not to shoot you, says the Commandant.
The Russian Soldiers are relieved.
We are going to hang you instead.
The one Russian soldier turns to his friend and says
"See I told we are winning, they are running out of bullets."
Three men are talking in a Soviet gulag.
One of them asks the two others: "So what did you do?"
The first one answers: "Well, I arrived late at the factory, and so they accused me of slowing down the Revolution and the victory of the Proletariat."
The second one answers: "Well, I arrived early at the factory, and so they accused me of wanting to be favored and promoted over my fellow workers."
Then they turn to the one who asked the question: "How about you, then?"
"Well, I arrived at the factory right on time, and so they accused me of having a watch from the West."
Did you know that Lubyanka Prison is the tallest building in Moscow?
They say you can see all the way to Siberia from the basement.
In China, if you criticize the government, you disappear overnight.
In Russia, they do it in broad daylight.

I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 60 years later. I don’t have to go to school or work. I get an allowance every month. I have my own pad. I don’t have a curfew. I have a driver’s license and my own car. The people I hang around with are not scared of getting pregnant and I don’t have acne. Life is great. I changed my car horn to gunshot sounds. People get out of the way much faster now.
Gone are the days when girls used to cook like their mothers. Now they drink like their fathers.

A man smelling of booze and cigarettes sat down on a subway next to a priest. The man’s tie was stained, there was red lipstick on his collar and face and a half-empty bottle of gin was sticking out of his torn coat pocket. He opened his newspaper and began reading.
After a few minutes the man turned to the priest and asked, "Tell me Father, do you happen to know what causes arthritis?"
The priest replies, "My son, it's caused by loose living, consorting with cheap, wicked women, too much alcohol, contempt for your fellow man, sleeping around with prostitutes and lack of a bath."
The drunk muttered in response, "Well, I'll be damned", then returned to his paper.
The priest, thinking about what he had said, nudged the man and apologized. "I'm very sorry. I didn't mean to come on so strong. How long have you had arthritis?"
The man answered, "I don't have it, Father. I was just reading here that the Pope suffers from it."
MORAL: Make sure you understand the question before offering the answer.
HONEST
It was that time, during the Sunday morning service, for the children's sermon.
All the children were invited to come forward.
One little girl was wearing a particularly pretty dress and, as she sat down, the pastor leaned over and said, "That is a very pretty dress. Is it your Easter Dress?"
The little girl replied, directly into the pastor's clip-on microphone, "Yes, and my Mom says it's a bitch to iron."
MATH LESSONS
Little Johnny was doing his math homework. He said to himself, "Two plus five, that son of a bitch is seven. Three plus six, that son of a bitch is nine..."
His mother heard what he was saying and gasped, "What are you doing?"
Little Johnny answered, "I'm doing my math homework, Mom."
"And this is how your teacher taught you to do it?" the mother asked.
"Yes," he answered.
Infuriated, the mother asked the teacher, "What are you teaching my son in math?"
The teacher replied, "Right now, we are learning addition."
The mother asked, "And are you teaching them to say two plus two, that son of a bitch is four?"
After the teacher stopped laughing, she answered, "What I taught them was, two plus two, THE SUM OF WHICH, is four."
WHO’S YOUR DADDY
A certain little girl, when asked her name, would reply, "I'm Mr. Sugarbrown's daughter."
Her mother told her this was wrong, she must say, "I'm Jane Sugarbrown."
The Vicar spoke to her in Sunday School, and said, "Aren't you Mr. Sugarbrown's daughter?"
She replied, "I thought I was, but mother says I'm not."
A PREDICTION
A little girl goes to the barber shop with her father.
She stands next to the barber chair, while her dad gets his hair cut, eating a snack cake.

She says, "Yes, I know, and I'm gonna get boobs too."
RESERECTION
The minister started his Children's Sermon with a question, "Who knows what the Resurrection is?"
Without missing a beat Little Johnny says, "If you have one lasting more than 4 hours call your physician."
REALITY
One day the first grade teacher was reading the story of Chicken Little to her class. She came to the part of the story where Chicken Little tried to warn the farmer. She read, ".... and so Chicken Little went up to the farmer and said, "The sky is falling, the sky is falling!" The teacher paused then asked the class, "And what do you think that farmer said?"
One little girl raised her hand and said, "I think he said: 'Holy shit! A talking chicken!'"
