 Just go to the flea market and buy some shit for like 20 dollars.

 Fuck spending tons of money on some useless bullshit.

 It's all a big scheme by the jewelry industry.

De Beers associated love with diamonds...Which is crazy, now women associate love with diamonds.

That's one hell of a great marketing campaign though. It's embedded in dang near every hetero females mind since then..

When I see a woman wearing a wedding ring the word "SOLD" comes to mind.

No, a Prince Albert will do...

and NZ, this will not end well for you, as soon as you get engaged or married, she will hold shit over you...power my man, she has all the power...and chances are you will not live up to "expectations" of her father...he may play that he likes you, but he knows the deal...

I spent 12 thousand on a Simon G ring.  You have to get a very clear diamond since these women are always shoving it into their girlfriends faces to look at.  You can get away with a "dirtier" diamond with earirings.

Shit i made about 6.8 grand on this trade today, capitalizing on tragic events of japan..
I ain't spending 3 months salary on no hoe..


Seriously - it is painfully obvious that this is the first time you've made money trading.

Making money OVER TIME is what counts - not a one off windfall.

Only if you listen to jewelery commercials.  And it is two--not three  ::)


Do not buy an expensive engagement ring or wedding ring unless both of you are totally debt free, (no mortgage, student loan, car note, etc.) and have money to burn.  Obviously, I’m speaking from my own values, but she should be thrilled with landing a good man—big bling is unnecessary.  A tasteful, modest, symbolic ring is all that is required.  If you want to spend big on a ring wait until you have been together 10 or 20 years—then you will truly have something to celebrate.

I don’t want to be a wet blanket, but remember more than half of all marriages end in divorce and finances/debt is a frequent cause.

Be sure to exchange credit reports before you say I do.

It would not be a good thing to wait until after your marriage to learn s/he has $90k in personal debt that you knew nothing about.


Bay,

I have an 830 credit score and zero debt- if I married a woman with a poor credit score would it affect us if we bought a home but it was in my name?

Just find something you know she would like and spend the money. If you have not saved anything yet, chances are you should not be getting married.
