- mchahn 11y agoAnother thing good about gold is the fact that you can't carve off a piece, even with the best knives. I learned this on a tour of the federal reserve gold depository. The guide passed around a brick of gold (very very heavy) and said he wasn't worried about anyone stealing a piece of it.
