Re: "I want this stock to go up, so I can make some money. How much do you think this piece of pyrite would be worth?"

TT: Your humor may be too subtle for our English as a Second Language friends. Pyrite (iron pyrite) is also known as fool's gold. It shines like gold, it looks like gold, but it isn't really gold, it's worthless. It fooled many a miner during the California Gold Rush days, hence the name "Fools Gold", or AMD.
