What kills him is he knows Diane is right on this one.

Stability also mean don’t mass produce one thing; Diversify your exoports

No kidding!
Frankly, there are a number of things more valuable than gold. Granted some of them might be a bit obscure for the average reader, but a short exploitation of what it is and when it’s used for is really all you need.
Gold = $49.27/gram
Rhodium = $750/gram
Now… admittedly the trickier part might be acquiring an entire bar of Rhodium to copy in the first place, now that the company treasury is devalued.

Why not just …rob a bank or take over a small dictatorship somewhere or something?

It’ll cause trouble in the long term

The BOSS has spoken!

Yeah, can’t he just like… subtly rob a bank? He’s got someone who phases through solid matter. Slap some invisibility on her and you have a no-damage, no-evidence bank robber.

An option, but this is a world where banks know that people like that exist. So the “no evidence” thing might be trickier than you think. Also, Claw and his top people are kind of high profile in the super community right now.
It’s not impossible and I agree it’s the kind of thing Claw would consider, but he also has to consider the consequences.

Ok, but now he has two demons and Joey. Not certain but I feel like even if the supers catch on to him and decide to stomp him, he could just teach them that he is now the baddest kid on the playground.

This is probably one of Meat’s least favorite things about his job, being his boss’ / best friend’s sounding board / wailing wall. He fulfills that role pretty well, though.
This scene is another great way of showing Claw’s depth of concern about his kids, as well as how that’s a bit of blind spot for him. Yeah, Kaley will probably be influenced to some degree by this new setting, but she’s also shown how much more she loves and trusts her father. I’d be more worried about HER influence on the new school…

True. Killer robots built with virtually nothing-materials at her old school. Think of what she’ll have access to NOW! Muahahahahaha! This may be the best thing that Claw could do to his greatest enemy…

I mean he could always go goldfinger on gold reserves worldwide and increase the value of his own supply and add to his villain credibility.
