Installing MySQL Gem for Mac OS X

I know there are a lot of questions like this already, but I'm looking for the SIMPLEST way to install the MySql gem + all the dependencies that are required for its successful installation on Mac OS X 10.8.2.

gem install ruby-mysql hasn't worked, I've gotten many different errors, either with "Not the correct permissions" or "Error in " from not having the dependencies

To fix for a manual gem install:

brew install openssl
brew install mysql
gem install mysql2 -- --with-opt-dir="$(brew --prefix openssl)"

To fix for all bundle installs:

brew install openssl
brew install mysql
bundle config --global build.mysql2 --with-opt-dir="$(brew --prefix openssl)"
bundle install

If you have Homebrew installed (if not, click the link and follow those directions), you can do brew install mysql and that should get you the right dependencies.
