...having no vocabulary for "metal" ( calls a metal "gold type" ), equating money / fund as gold only shows how stupid the writer & how limited mandarin's vocabulary is. That's absolutely not the case. The character of 'Gold' in mandarin is also used to describe the shining color of something. A shining stuff is just our intuitive idea of metals, isn't it?
