How do you explain gold fever to those who don't have it?

The short version I give is:
I saw, I liked, I learned, I did, I saw more, I liked it more, I learned more, I did better...Repeat.

To me, it is the passion, the very definition of the pursuit of happiness.

You could buy a lot more than a pickup with that "nugget." It is the famous "Boot of Cortez."

Damn you Terry, now I have to pick the gold. You are just encouraging the fever. You should be ashamed of yourself. BTW, how much is that worth? I have to know, now that you made me abandon the two smoking hot blondes.

Ok, it would be a really nice truck plus a Porsche, and a new, high ceiling garage to park 'em in. No doubt they would be
parked right next to The Queens brand new Mercedes ....

How about buying 3 or 4 private mine properties or buying the latest mining gear or some firearms

With $1.8m, the women will come to me before I get a chance to 'pick' them! Seriously, I'm happily married so I'll go with the fancy gold over the fancy women any day ;-)

I dont think you can explain it?
Ive probably got it worse than any one on this site i actually go look for it daily, i have the fever to find it, and not just possess the stuff, its my right as a tax paying citizen to freely prospect where i want.
and i coulndt pass up the the invitation to prospect a whole mnt, once i found gold and figured out where it was hiding it was all over for me, take a look at my big mnt prospect youll get it!!

when you sleep eat talk and daydream about gold you have it bad but it hurts worst knowing theres no gold in south NJ
