You know, Captain, I’ve been to Doha of Qatar in the Persian Gulf. They’re loaded with something called “black gold” so that the natives there don’t actually do any work (unless you count the constant purchasing of the most trendy and fashionable items “work”). The diamonds are reasonably priced and I imagine you could get good prices for silver there as well. It’s a thought.

"Veery interestin' idea mucker! Black gauld! Ahh kin' ay likes th' rin' ay it! An' maybes a guid toor fur silvers?! We'll pit it oan uir list!"💎 -Keptin
