Theres more gold out there to be had because there are more idiots out there to be exploited. Why would you mine for it when you could advertise for it?. Put your "unused" gold in an envelope and take a sixty percent hit... why not?. lol
All your gold is unused, yes?. Even when you wear it are you really using it?. The only time gold is used is when it's traded based on the imaginary scale of things deemed valuable. See my previous post concerning religion.
