The end of that post is beautiful:

  I wake up and dive into my vault of golden coins.

Dumb money is still among us. Actually knowing it makes me sleep better at night.

  OK! OK! Hold it!
  I just want to say something.
  You know, for every dollar a man makes
  a woman makes 63 cents.
  Now, fifty years ago that was 62 cents.
  So, with that kind of luck, it'll be the year 3,888
  before we make a buck.

  He's done more good through his site and the $$ 
  he generates off his site ... than you, me and the next 100 
  people who read this combined.

Careful, the right combination of 100 HN readers might throw a monkey wrench in your calculations. =)

Fortunately for you, I contribute little so the next 99 have to play catch up.

Funny you should say that. "Gold, Long a Secure Investment, Loses Its Luster": http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/11/business/gold-long-a-secur...

Care to elaborate on how this works? I couldn't find any about page (and the site's down now).

From what I could gather, this looked like "person-who-just-spent-their-fortune on the web". :)

Why are you changing domains and resubmitting the very same site to HN?
