Social media, following a favourite prospector, he posts good shit. Gemmy spessartine garnets, rubies, etc, etc, he's off in the high country living the dream...
Only, of course, if you read between the lines he's not, I mean, he is, but his perspective is a little off...
His posts, up and down, now he's on some tirade about a claim he sold, feels he's due some residuals, he should be rich, should never have sold it (true, true, but he needed the money and didn't want to do the work), the residuals he's calculating based off of a popular YouTuber Channel wherein a particular YouTube Celebrity ("") claims to have extracted a million dollars worth of material from a claim he sold.
He's like this, I've heard rumours, his own private Idaho, his non-prospecting posts are a little "weird" for want of better word, partnering with him - in any capacity - is impossible, he's perfectly suited to the finding of treasure and little else.
The treasure, "1 Million Dollars worth of ..." doesn't speak to the raw material, it's click-bait, bollocks, every little bit of the find needs to be cabbed, polished, faceted, turned into money, which is in itself no small expense, no small investment of time, Our Favourite Prospector doesn't get that, then there's the cost of recovery, helicopters, men to be paid, inventory to be held, this claim, like most claims, is utterly worthless, a liability even, if you don't do the work...
Anyways, favourite prospector is melting down all over Social Media about how he's been taken advantage of, an unsympathetic point of view for an adult, but still I have to follow him, if only to live the dream vicariously...
