The Australian fellow on the teevee told me to invest in gold.
He said that in a time dominated by terrorism and uncertainty I can depend on gold to be a safe investment. How do I know this is true? Because he spoke with an Australian accent. And if I needed further proof, they also have an advertisement with an upper class British woman, and she tells me that I should invest in Vienna Philharmonic gold coins. And I always trust women with upper class British accents.

2. Australians never lie.
They are genetically coded for honesty. It comes from the first European settlers on the continent. ;)
