When Franklin D. Roosevelt became president, he aimed to end the economic depression. The problem? There wasn't enough gold in the Treasury to print more bills, increase spending, and stimulate the economy. In this pursuit, he banned citizens from owning gold (1933). Citizens were required to turn in their metals for $20.67 per troy ounce. Unfortunately, the plan did not seem to end the Great Depression, which lasted until 1939.

How do you hang you toilet paper? Over or Under? There is a proper way: Over . . . at least that's the way the original toilet paper roll patent was approved (Dec. 22, 1891).
