What's in my tool box, and what I really need are two different things. The goal in life is to only need a tape measure to use as a pointer, a coffee cup holster would be nice too.

But you can get a good package deal from the supply house of the basics.
Klien tools The 28-piece electrician tool set (Cat. No. 80028) offers the professional or do-it-yourselfer a full assortment of basic screwdrivers, nut drivers and pliers; a double-sided power-return rule; magnetic torpedo level; wire stripper/cutter; crimping tool; adjustable wrench; utility knife and protective eyewear. The set comes with a 16-inch canvas tool bag.
A screw gun maybe... That and a good patient additude. If doing resi, you better just get some good knee pads, you're going to go into small dark holes no one else wants to go in.
