The term "broken and unwanted gold" isn't describing the gold itself. It's describing the piece of jewelry. Like a broken bracelet that you never got fixed, or an earring that lost it's stone so you don't wear them anymore. However, I agree with the rest of what was said about people who don't do their research into stuff like that deserve to get ripped off. There are tons of them out there. Such as; buying foreclosed property for under $400.00, they'll tell you how, but you have the buy the program, then attend a seminar, then another seminar, then another. Meanwhile, you're paying to go to each one. My personal favorite is the guy selling the book that tells you how to get all kinds of government money.
