There's a mineral so rare that only one specimen of it has ever been found in the entire world.

“It’s called kyawthuite (cha-too-ite), a tiny, tawny-hued grain weighing just a third of a gram (1.61 carats). On first glance, you might mistaken it for amber or topaz; but the unassuming mineral speck has value beyond measure.”

    Imagine reading the article. I did, and I can tell you that nobody who did would make this comment.

      You caught me. I’m a terrible lying liar who only says things like this to impress people on the internet by making them think I did something stupid instead of something else stupid. It’s all part of my fiendish plan to make people think I’m an idiot. You found me out. Curses!
