And since we were on the subject of Gold.

The Golden Rule as taught (although not necessarily practiced) by the world's great religions.

 

Christianity
All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye so to them; for this is the law and the prophets.
 Matthew 7:12
 
Confucianism
Do not do to others what you would not like yourself. Then there will be no resentment against you, either in the family or in the state.
 Analects 15:23
 
Buddhism
Hurt not others in ways that you yourself would find hurtful. 
 Udana-Varga 5:18
 
Hinduism
This is the sum of duty; do naught onto others what you would not have them do unto you.
 Mahabharata 5:1517
 
Islam
No one of you is a believer until he desires for his brother that which he desires for himself.
 Sunnah
 
Judaism
What is hateful to you, do not do to your fellowman. This is the entire Law; all the rest is commentary. 
Talmud, Shabbat 3id
 
Taoism
Regard your neighbor's gain as your gain, and your neighbor's loss as your own loss.
Tai Shang Kan Yin P'ien
 
Zoroastrianism
That nature alone is good which refrains from doing another whatsoever is not good for itself.
