Borrowed from "The House of Musical Traditions":

A man dies and finds himself standing third in line at the Pearly Gates.

The angel explains that admission requirements are now a bit more strict, as a few slum landlords and con artists have managed to slip into Heaven without being detected.

He queries the first candidate: "What was your annual salary, and what was your profession?"

"I made $150,000 as an attorney," comes the reply.

"You may enter," says the angel.

Second candidate, same question. "I made $95,000; I was a realtor." He is also permitted to enter. Now it is the third man's turn.

"My annual salary was $8,000."

"Cool!" replies the angel. "And what instrument did you play?"
