What's in your glory box?

You know, you're hope chest.
Right now if you met the person of your dreams you want to live the rest of your life with.
What will you bring to the table?
A house?
A used fridge and clunky washing machine?
Lots of moola!
Expensive artworks
Your kid's cute fridge crayon drawings
Just your clothes?
Just the income from a steady job
A good Superannuation payout when you're 65!
I'm not much of a collector of anything, so it could be just my clothes?
(Pretty sure I'll scare any potential candidates away if I wasn't wearing any.)
Please, no glory box jokes! (Unless they're funny or very dirty.)
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

A steady, reliable income.
And a pre-nup...The rest of the stuff's mine.
My income and my ass would have to be enough. 
EDIT: Oh, yeah....and my love.

Reasonable amount of money (halved for deposit on said apartment)

iMac, digital cable, electric stove, hybrid microwave/oven, various athletic posters from my time at Sac State in the late 90's, plus two soccer balls from that era. Tons of tee-shirts.
And most importantly, a fierce unwillingness to give up any of it.
I live in a condo right now, but if money were no object, I might like to live in a 3+ bedroom home in an airpark airpark. Cessna 172 and a HondaJet in the hangar. Chevy Silverado in the garage.
ETA: Still not giving up the t-shirts, posters and balls, though.

Beccs! Nice! ( don't mention the swarm of cats though!)
If the mustang hasn't been converted the deals off!
(I wish!)

I'd rather play with the cats all day if the truth be told.
Cars are nice in small doses. (They just can't reciprocate the love!)

A home, a stable and good income, comfort, and all of my love.
I know she appreciates all of it and I'm happy to give it to her.
