Gold symbolizes wealth and good fortune for the Chinese.
As Chinese New Year is drawing near, many decorative items that is gold in colour or shapes (gold nuggets) or symbolizes gold (e.g. mandarin oranges and lime is called "kam" in Cantonese and this word sounds like the word gold ~ also "kam") are on sale. Decorating one's house with such "gold" (fortune) will lead to more gold flowing into the house and its household! Don't be surprised to see abundance of gold decorations when you visit your Chinese friends during Chinese New Year! So, get out and join the gold rush now!!! :o)
I wish all of you lots of good fortune in the coming Year of Rat!
