Chatting amongst themselves (as guys do when standing in front of a large white gate on a fluffy terrain) they came to three conclusions.

1) They must be dead.

2) The must be standing in front of the gates to heaven.

3) The guy approaching them from the other side of the gate must be St. Peter.

St. Peter motioned the three gentlemen toward the gate. As they approached he said to the first fellow. "Before I let you into heaven I have two standard questions to ask. Not to worry, it's just a formality."

"First how much money did you make back on earth?"

"Oh, about $150,000," replied the first gentlemen.

"Okay," acknowledged St. Perter, "and what kind of job did you have?"

"I was a doctor -- ear, nose and throat specialist." finished the first gentlemen.

"Okay, you may pass into heaven." St. Peter said as he waved the first gentlemen into heaven.

Turning to the second fellow St. Peter asked "And, how much did you make?"

"$2 million to $5 million" replied the second fellow.

"And what job did you have?" asked St. Peter
"I was a dream team lawyer specializing in crimes committed by the rich and famous." the second fellow answered.

While motioning the fellow through St. Peter said, "Good, you'll be our first attorney."

Turning to the third and final gentlemen St. Peter asked, "And how much did you make?"

The third fellow replied, "Well, in a good year I could net as much as $5,000."

"And what instrument did you play?" asked St. Peter.
