sql UPDATE function not working?

Here is my code:

 

<?php

include('header.php');

$sql = ("SELECT * FROM users ORDER BY id") or die(mysql_error());
$res = mysql_query($sql);
while($rows = mysql_fetch_array($res)){
$id = $rows['id'];
$sql2 = ("UPDATE users SET gold = (gold * 5) WHERE id = '$id'") or die (mysql_error());
$res2 = mysql_query($sql);
echo "User: $rows[un] now has $rows[gold] gold.";
echo "<br>";
}
mysql_close();
?>

 

This is what it displays every time I refresh the page:

 

User: asdfasdf now has 25 gold.
User: terukio now has 30 gold.
User: bobby now has 0 gold.

 

When I refresh it should updated the first user to 125 gold and the second to 150 gold.  However it does not do this and it does not display an error.

 

EDIT: Even if I remove the condition WHERE id = '$id' it still gives me the same result.
