Hello all.
I'm fairly new to Sleuth and I thought I might share a little hobby of mine with you all. Here's something for that sad moment when the mysteries of the day are all done.

Thousands lay up gold within this house,
but no man made it.
Spears past counting guard this house,
but no man wards it.
What is it?

Here's a riddle for you all to chew on:

I am always worn
But not always presented
I shine as I adorn
I am teased and tormented
I die before I am born
But my loss is not always lamented
What am I?

If someone wrote it earlier, then sorry:

A man is watching TV.
Then he stands up from his chair, moves up on the stairs, lights the light and he commits suicide. (it was daylight.)

WHAT WAS HIS JOB?

The man was a lighthouse keeper - he saw a news story about a shipwreck and realized he'd not turned on the light the previous evening.

I went to the hardware store and asked for one; the clerk told me it would be 12 cents. I thought about getting 50 - a deal at only 24 cents, but then the clerk informed me that 144 would only cost 36 cents. I wound up only getting six. What did I buy and how much did it cost me?
