Gold Is Like Polaris, The North Star

a: Gold ~
b: Polaris, the North Star

What: "In the 19th century, people said that gold is like Polaris, the North Star. You can use Polaris as a "standard" or "target" to help guide your ship. However, it is not Polaris itself that guides the ship, but rather the person with the hand on the tiller, making constant adjustments, that steers the ship using Polaris as a guide. It makes no difference whether or not you "own Polaris."
