Chosen answer: Insurance and to get revenge on Bart.

But how does killing an aunt that Bart doesn't really like get revenge on him?
Even if Bart "doesn't really like" Selma, he doesn't seem to hate her so much that he would be totally careless about her death. If nothing else, he probably realises that his mother would be upset.
He doesn't DISlike Aunt Selma. In any event, he probably doesn't want her to die.
