irrationally negative toward gold.

"大多数人不过是刀下鱼l肉而已"

So, who is in the 大多数人 in regard to holding/buying gold?

"有什么y理由你金子有真正的价值?"

Blissfully ignorant!  For one, the price of gold has never dropped to zero in human history, and two, one ounce of gold bought a fine man's suit in the ancient times, and it still buys a fine man's suit today.

For gold to hold that kind of purchasing power over hundreds even thousands of years, and no real value you say?
