The Gold Diaries-Gold Makes People Cry

I'm always surprised at the level of kindness that people are capable of in today's hectic world. People sell gold for all kinds of reasons. Today we had a client who was selling her gold jewelry to help her next door neighbors for the holidays. The family had suffered through a number of health problems, loss of jobs, and kids with special needs. As the holidays approached, it was clear that this family would have little if anything to share and little to celebrate for Christmas. There were no toys, no clothes and no food. Our client was stepping up to be a good neighbor and a good samaritan. She also had little means to help, but she was determined to help. Searching through her things, she remembered her jewelry box tucked away in her closet that contained her old gold necklaces and earings. Her friend had told her about our showroom and how she could get cash for gold jewelry.

Hoping to get a couple of hundred dollars at most for her gold jewelry, she visited our showroom in Atlanta. We shared some good stories and tested her gold. After a bit, she was anxious to get her cash so that she could go buy winter coats for the neighbor's children. When we finished testing her gold jewelry we added a special bonus to her valuation. Then we let her know that her gold was valued at more than several hundred dollars.

I looked up to see our client crying. She was crying tears of joy! She was so happy to get so much for her gold jewelry. She knew now that she could really make a difference and buy so much more for her neighbors in need. She cried and cried and we all had a gold laugh. It was going to be a good Christmas. That was the spirit of giving.
