Today I made a rare venture to the outside world. There I was, minding my own business casually getting a hair cut, not thinking about gold AT ALL.

Suddenly out of the corner of my eye I saw a flash.

I desperately tried not to look.

But with a name like Goldmatters, I could not resist the allure of beautiful gold 2 inches in front of my face.

Normally I am able to ignore the pale diluted color of 14 karat or 18 karat gold in the jewelry common here in the US.... but this was different.

My kindly hair cutter (stylist?) had on her right wrist something of great beauty. It looked like Mene gold. REAL gold. Not the cheapo overpriced weak sauce less pure ‘designer’ gold most people wear.

No, her gold looked more like this:

Not wanting to appear overly creepy, I didn’t want to actually ask her about her bracelet.... so instead I just weirdly eavesdropped on her conversation.

Customer: “Where are you from?”

My hair cutter lady: “I am thai.”

Shes from Thailand!

Now it all made sense.

See, the billions of people in the Eastern part of the world GET gold. In places like Thailand, China, and India, the citizens understand gold as MONEY.

There is a deep respect and understanding for pure gold. Understanding that a great way to not only protect your wealth but enjoy it is to proudly wear beautiful high Karat gold jewelry.

Check out how gold jewelry is sold in this Thai shop:

My nice hair cutter lady likely had a 23 karat gold bracelet which is very common in Thailand.

Gold is EVERYWHERE in Thailand.... and I mean EVEYWHERE.

I closed my eyes and peacefully went back to sleep as she buzzed my head, all right in the world once more.

As tufts of my hair fell gently down around me I dozed off and dreamed of the day where US citizens could order 24 karat gold priced by gram weight x current metals price + a transparent design fee with free shipping.

If only that such a company already existed:
