Streets of gold

There was this guy, who really wanted to go to heaven, but had issues with giving up his worldly
belongings: he was very very rich. So he pleaded with God: when I die, please please, can I take
some of my richness with me?
Finally, God told him that this was fine: he could take one bag.
So the man stuffed a bag with all the gold he could fit in and tucked it under his bed.
He forgot about it, until the day he died: he took his bag and knocked on the pearly gates
of heaven.
Peter: "Oi! You cannot take anything with you!"
Man: "But, I had an agreement with God.. check it out with Him, Ill wait."
So Peter had a chat with God and came back. He said to the man:
"Okay, you checked out all right. But, I have to admit.. I am a bit curious as to what you
think is so important that you want to take it with you to heaven?"
The man opened his bag and showed Peter the gold he packed.
Peter first looked with disbelief, then started to giggle. Laughing out loud, he said:

... (wait for it)...
