    One of the more reliable jobs in the old west was selling pickaxes to hopeful prospectors. They may not find gold, but they’ll certainly be buying your axe to try. Years after the area runs out of gold, people are still going to be buying your wares.

    It’s always been good business to sell products targeted at people hoping to make it big.
