An interesting article:

Do you have any particular quotations about gold that you are fond of?

"Gold has done nothing but go down in price for the last 25 years" (or words to that effect).

Some journalist in the financial section of a UK national newspaper in 1999, before continuing that it was not a good investment.

I immediately thought it must be very close to the bottom, and it would only go up from there.

(And also that the journalist was an idiot, as was the newspaper for employing him.)

Reminds me of a Terry Pratchett quip...

"Bad spelling can be lethal. For example, the greedy Seriph of Al-Yabi was cursed by a badly-educated deity and for some days everything he touched turned to Glod, which happened to be the name of a small dwarf from a mountain community hundreds of miles away who found himself magically dragged to the kingdom and relentlessly duplicated. Some two thousand Glods later the spell wore off. These days, the people of Al-Yabi are renowned for being remarkably short and bad-tempered."

Good job old Midas didn't have the same deity.
