My father has a big barn just full of old things that he has collected over the years. He recently discovered a bunch of kick plates and door knockers that are made of solid gold and he is selling gold online to other people for some good money. I thought that when everyone starting selling old gold jewelry and stuff that they were crazy but now that my dad has told me how much he is getting for each of his items; I want some of that money.

I looked through my jewelry box when I heard that selling gold was a smart thing to do and found that most of the things that I own are just gold plated and they needed to be solid gold for them to be worth anything. My friends are all selling old gold and walking away with some good cash and it looks like I will not be making anything from the big jump in gold prices.

I am going to ask my father if I can dig through his barn with him this weekend in hopes of finding some more old gold things to sell. If I help him, maybe he would be willing to let me have a portion of the proceeds from selling them.
