No good deed goes unpunished.

It just ended up in someone else’s pockets.

The government: “I see that you have some gold there. Give it to me.”

What gold bars?
Oh, these gold bars?
They are heirlooms and we’ve had them in the family for thousands of years.

It’s not like you can take five gold bars down to the pawn shop. So we called the police.

No, you take it down to the local bullion store, jeweler, or you contact one of about 1000 bullion dealers on-line.

Governments think everything belongs to them. We already really own nothing (try not paying your taxes), but no one I know is very happy.
