Kali initially demanded three places as his exclusive residence till the departure of King Parikshit from this earth. They were the Gambling dens, ***** houses, and Liquor shops. This was granted by the king and Kali requested for one more place Prikshit said you can reside in Gold also.
Later forgetting his grant Parikshit wore the golden crown and went for hunt. He got separated from his army and went to nearby asram where a sage was in meditation. The king asked for water and the sage did not reply. Kali who was sitting in his crown made him loose his mind and the king became angry. he picked up a dead snake lying outside the asram and put it around the neck of the sage and departed . The rishi kumar( son of the Rishi) on returning saw the dead snake and cursed"which ever scoundrel who put this dead snake around my fathers neck shall die of Snake bite on the 7th day from now."

How shall all of them fit in these allotted places? On this king Parikshit said that they should all then dwell in gold. In this way, Kali Yuga resides in the 5 places allotted by king Parikshit. Those people who yearn for higher ideals should not even go near these five things.
In the Kali Yuga, by seeking the blessings of Lord Jagannath Puri, one shall attain salvation. In the Kali Yuga, there is no average life expectancy of humans. Even a child in the womb can die inspite of his mother and father living..
Humans taking birth in this era will usually be radiant, bad tempered, greedy and untruthful. The personality will be plagued by flaws such as jealousy, ego, anger, pleasure, instinct, desires and greed.There shall be only one pillar of religion in the Kali Yuga. Here the idol of Bhagwan Vishnu has assumed a black colour because of the inherent chaos and delusion. Vedic conduct, religion, Yagya and Karma all cease to exist.
All types of problems such as ailments, lethargy, anger, mental diseases and hunger, thirst tend to aggravate. Gradually even happiness and comforts of humans become decadent and morbid. In this era Brahmins do the work of a Shudra and the Shudras alike the Vaishyas amass wealth or alike Kshatriyas engage in allied activities and earn their livelihood.
In Kali Yuga, Brahmins shall renounce self-study, contemplation and shall eat every thing that is prohibited. They will no more be inclined towards penance and on the contrary Shudras shall take interest in recitation of Vedic chants.
In this way when hypocrisy reaches the zenith, it initiates the final annihilation. Many a king of the inferior category shall reign the earth who shall be sinners, unfaithful and wicked. Kings of places such as Andhra, Shaka, Pulunda, Yavan, Kamboj, Bahrhik and other wealthy Aamir shall become kings. No Brahmin in this age shall earn his daily bread and butter honestly.

Kaliyuga asked Parikshit to reside in his Golden crown.
This denotes that in Kaliyuga Gold (money) will be main power of kaliyuga
