How to unlock the Two Kinds of People achievement in SteamWorld Dig - Definitive Guide

20,000 gold is roughly 91% of all gold value found in the mine. While you can certainly focus on this earlier, it becomes much easier with the Ore Detector from Vectron. Once you get to the bottom of Vectron, start there and work your way back up to start with the most money. You'll effectively need to clear out Vectron and the Old World for this; the money in Archaea is pretty minimal when you have access to the rest.

Gems can be destroyed by falling rocks and magnetic crushers, though you'd have to really try for it to destroy 2,000 gold's worth. Similarly, you only need to collect, so spend what you need! Finding all secrets within caves will definitely help matters as well.

FYI there's a little over 24,000 gold in the game.

I did not have any trouble finding all this money before the bossfight. But then again I LOVED this game and I explored it thoroughly. I also did not find all the secret areas before I reached this moneygoal.
I did however go through all the doors and all 3 levels (as one should before meeting Vectron) =)

Just so everyone knows, this needs to be done before the boss fight. I beat the game and then continued my save. Just reached 20,000 gold but no achievement. Really bummed out.

You definitely can still get this if you beat the game before collecting the 20k. You just have to go back and beat the final boss after you reach 20k.

This is pretty easy, but very time consuming. Save your gold grinding until near the very end of the game when you have maxed out most of your upgrades, making mining much easier and faster. You will have to mine nearly all of the material in the world to reach this amount, so take your time to get any pieces you can (especially near the bottom where it is more valuable).

Going into the separate mines is also a good place to get gold since the secret areas in them usually carry very valuable materials like diamonds and emeralds.

(Missable)

Gold can be collected from mining the myriad of ore blocks in the various worlds of the mineshaft. There are far more than 20,000 gold worth of ores in the game, so this shouldn't be a problem. You can get it on your first playthrough to help you on your way to Fully Loaded, but it is one of the requirements for Master Prospector, so you can obtain it then if you want. This trophy is missable however, as you lose coins upon death. If you lose too many coins this way, you may have to play through the game again.

If you're having trouble getting this trophy, there is an upgrade in Vectron that allows you to see the location of minerals and orbs, thus making this trophy considerably easier. You can also expand the map via the pause menu if necessary.
