[QUOTE="madtuna, post: 521978, member: 44"] I part with a fair bit of gold each season at the local van park, often see a bit turn up on farcebook. Even more ridiculous is seeing pictures I've posted on here or photos I've let people take in the local van park end up on their farcebook page. :lol: A bit more on the percentage and luck thing... [i]"I would say 20% research, 20% equipment 20% effort , and 40% luck" [/i] As I said previously I find it hard to break up into a percentage thing...the numbers don't add up to me. Like anything, what you get out of it directly relates to how much effort you put into it. If I ran a business and my workers only put in 20% effort, they'd be fired quick smart. 20% effort does not equate to a productive business. Prospecting, if you want the rewards is no different. 20% effort is fine if you're just mucking about and don't really care if you find anything or not, and there's nothing at all wrong with that. But if you want consistent rewards it requires 100% effort. If you don't put in the effort and manage to find a bit...that's luck! But luck always runs out. If you put in the effort and find a bit, that's not luck, that's the results of the effort you have put in paying off! [/QUOTE]
