Gold Fever

Gold Fever refers to the intense excitement and enthusiasm people experience when they hear about or seek out gold discoveries. This phenomenon often leads to mass migrations of prospectors and fortune seekers, a notable example being the California Gold Rush of the mid-1800s. The allure of striking it rich can result in social and economic upheaval, as people abandon their jobs and homes in pursuit of fortune. While many sought wealth, only a few succeeded, highlighting the risks and unpredictability associated with such quests for treasure. Gold Fever exemplifies the powerful draw of potential wealth.
