Making a new paladin

I've called him "moneydin" because he's supposed to get me rich.

Now, if i want to get rich, he'll have to be able to
a) kill ubers
b) something else (one of: baalruns, meph run, pindle, keys, ...)

So i was thinking of making him a smiter-something else hybrid, probably a smiter-BH-er. But i'm having some trouble allocating me skills

so here's a few questions:

1) Does a smiter need maxed holy sield?
2) how effictive is BH when not fully synergized?
3) I was considering putting points in the following skills:
Conviction, BH, Vigor, Fanat, holy shield, blessed aim.
As you all can see, that's too many skills to max all of them. Which ones should I take?

basically, how would i best place my skills in order to make him as strong as possible.

any hints on items is also welcome (i've read the uber tristram guide)
