An extremely wealthy man was rather disturbed by the fact that he couldn't take any of his hard-earned money with him when he died. He decided to pray and ask if there was any way an exception could be made for him.
An angel heard his plea and was able to make the necessary arrangements, but warned him that he would only be allowed one suitcase.
The man considered the situation carefully and decided that the best use of his limited space would be to fill a large suitcase with gold bars.
When the man finally died, he showed up at the gates of heaven, suitcase in hand. St. Peter, who was aware of the unique situation, asked the man to open the suitcase to reveal what he couldn't bear to leave behind.
Upon seeing the gold bars, St. Peter looked up and exclaimed, "You brought pavement?"
