I believe the answer is:

midas

(Other definitions for midas that I've seen before include "Mythical king who had the power to turn everything to gold" , "King of Phrygia who had a golden touch" , "One with a golden touch" , "Greek mythological king with money-making touch" , "Legendary king whose touch turned things to gold" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Sunday Times.
