I suppose it is because you can't get to the end of a rainbow. But is there another reason?

I thought the pot of gold at the rainbow was for keeps. If so, I'd keep some for a rainy day, give some in charity for a good cause. And with some I'd buy text books for poor children. I know some would say this was charity; I'd take it as 'help'. Charity is a bit diff. If that pot was not intended for me, was a 'find': I'd take it to the police for sure.

Did you know that Leprechauns and their gold is all a made up story just like Santa and the Easter Bunny, some body made up these stories and got away from the true stories that God told us in the bible....like his promise to never flood the hole world again and made the rainbow to remind us of his promise , and the solid ring means love forever, so the solid round rainbow is like a double message, that God loves us forever and his promise not to flood earth again. Christmas is Jesus's birthday not about Santa and what he 's going to give us, and Easter is about Jesus being hung on the cross so we can pray to him and ask him to forgive us, he did that because that's how much he loves all of us. I think all children should know the true meaning of these holidays and it's good for them to know how much they are loved...some children don't get the love they should from their parents and at least they would know how much Jesus love each and every one !!!

Because if he left it anywhere else in the rainbow, it would blend in with the orange and yellow, and even the leprechaun himself wouldn't be able to find it, and sure that just wouldn't do, begorra.

leprechuns, mostly are greedy, broke (as in bankrupt) creatures. They keep their gold at he end of a rainbow because there is no end of the rainbow. A rainbow is a circle. Theyre just lying. i dont think there is any gold.

Sean the Leprechaun (a sound friend of mine back in Ireland) informs me the rainbow he uses keeps moving, and we humans have to be very nimble to keep up with it.
I tried to visit him one day, but I found what he said was true, so my visit never took place.

They don't really put it there. They put it in the middle of the rainbow but it slides down the curve and lands at the end. Thats why nobody has ever found it.

Leprechauns figure that their gold will have more lucky properties, shoudl they hide it at the end of a rainbow.

Because humans can't find the end of the rainbow- so it must be their version of a safety security box.

It has no end, a rainbow is round, The lying little bastards.
Anyway why would they want gold, is it of any use in makey-on land.
They probably promise to give it to give it to fairies and elves for sexual favours.
I'm having one more drink and I'm going to bed.
