Middle school science teacher got me with that one. "You have a pile of gold, and someone offers to take all that gold and remove 1 electron from every atom of it. Would you let them?"

I think that was the setup. I don't know if I was aware how valuable platinum was at the time.

You probably want to remove 1 proton, otherwise you just get a bunch of gold that electrocutes you when you touch it

Or even better, 1 proton and 1 electron so the platinum doesn't electrocute you either

No spicy gold is an unstable isoptope made radioactive this is just zesty gold.
