So true

i used to have horse's.. just for pleasure riding,  boy if we still had horse's today.

I don't think we could afford the cost of looking after them anymore

The things is I could get just about get int any place I wanted. When the price of gold shot up all the doors that was open to me then was lock.

I was prospecting at 35 dollars so why not not at 12 hundred! I never done it for the money but just for the love of finding it.

There's a romance in finding gold, I'm in it for the romance.

Haven't sold any yet. I see it as a good solid investment. Will sell when the price is right or the need is high but will still try to stockpile more gram by gram!

Not in it for a money.Enjoy it and until i enjoy it i will do it regardless of price of gold.

Yeah I have always loved the bush and being out there, chasing gold just adds to that.  It can be lucrative and that is a bonus but having a small business and a young family, a day in the bush wondering about with no mobile phone is very good for the mind and soul.

My answer is yes, as I have said "Gold Prospecting is in my Blood" so no matter how low the price drops I'll be still out there.       If I do need to sell any of our hard earned gold so be it.  

As others have said the friends that you make while you're out there are golden, also the peaceful sarounds I would miss as well.   

Cheers. 

Mike.

very fortunate that it costs me nothing to go prospecting so if the priced dropped its guts I'd still be in front.
