Find the link

The on-line front page of Fox News carries today a pair of articles, interesting mainly because the on-line editor decided to couple them together in the list of the latest news:

The first article tells the story of a largest ever natural diamonds field.
Russian scientists are claiming that a gigantic deposit of industrial diamonds found in a huge Siberian meteorite crater during Soviet times could revolutionize industry.
The second article isn't, strictly speaking, about natural deposits:
A Carson City, Nev., recluse whose body was found in his home at least a month after he died left only $200 in his bank account. But as Walter Samaszko Jr.'s house was being cleared for sale, officials made a surprise discovery: gold bars and coins valued at $7 million.
Now, does the person that put the articles together mean that the diamonds will help Russian economy as much as the gold bars helped... well, you see what I mean by now?

Uh, I think the guy whose job it was to find a few interesting stories and write links and headlines for them would be amazed that you have a connection between them.

On the second one it only proves:

You can't take it with you!
