Ring prices

a chinese assassin i once dated told me 3 months wages is standard practice.

i told her to get another boyfriend.

This is starting to sound like the shittiest troll thread attempt.

How?

if you have the money, then go ahead. don't get suckered into spending more than you can afford on muh once in a lifetime purchase. its really not worth stressing over or over extending yourself.

Since diamonds are a scam I feel like maximizing the amount of silver/gold in the ring for the price is the smartest option.

I have 3k cash and 1.5k in crypto and another 1k in savings so i think im alright.
Want to do platinum or rose gold.

Bro if your net worth is $5k, do not spend $3k on a ring. That’s financially retarded. Spend like $1500 at the absolute max. You shouldn’t be dropping 50% of your worth on a ring

So? Ill make more money? I have a job and have a easy time saving up.

I was originally going to use my great grandma's diamonds, but then the vintage ring kind of fell in my lap. I will be using grammys diamonds for the wedding band. Might as well keep that kind of thing in the family,and this way I avoided jew dealers twice.

some women will find out the price of the ring and bitch if its too cheap

Spent 5k on a ring. Had 2 blowjobs in 6 years.

Sorry m8 i get 2 a day if i ask. Dont cuz my dick gets raw

I spent 9k on my wife's. Got 1.2 but honestly I think 1 carat is fine as long as she doesn't have fat stubby fingers.

Do whatever you want, just know that you’re making a shitty decision

You're supposed to pay 6 months of your wages. No way in hell I'd ever spend that on a ring

Rule of thumb if you wanna be taken seriously is 50% of your net yearly salary

>Make 110k
>Spend 55k on a ring
That's ridiculous. Diamonds aren't even rare

is that antisemitism i smell remember the 6 gorillion

you're a fucking idiot if you spend any more than $500 on this thing

the diamond ring meme was invented by jews who stumbled upon a mine. when they found out the fucking things are all over the place, they created a cartel to keep prices high artificially. then they spent tens of millions on ads and subliminal messaging imprinting this retarded idea of a diamond ring for engagement, and here you are wondering whether you should hand over your money to them to please this fantasy fucking image you and your girlfriend have of a worthless piece of carbon.

Lmao wrong, women are fucking greedy whores, a 2k ring means Tyrone will be stretching all holes while you’re at work.

>getting a engagement ring

Why would you want to marry a immodest whore? Get a peace of twine and wrap it around each of your fingers for a fortnight, so that all the men in the village can see that she is taken. Then disgard it and live in the joy of the lord and not some man made metal band.

Anything less then that and your a fucking degenerate

I genuinely feel sorry for you

Is your to-be fiance retarded? If not there is no reason you should spend 3k on a ring
I'm spending ~600 max

I actually prefer moissanite for my ring to diamond, it looks better to me
I also considered other stones like moonstone but honestly nothing looks as good to me as moissanite, the color stones are just too heavy with color and the lighter ones too dull. Cubic zirconia also isnt as pretty and is frail af

Actual stats show that around half of people buying an engagement ring spend 2k or under, and then its weighted at the high end as well from the people who've got money to spend and think the more the better

>spent 9k on a ring
Fucking why

Based.

You're dead set on pushing away money on an item whose price is artificially high

ur gf is lucky

You’re throwing money away.

Spent 15k on 3.0 car diamond. Why? To lock down a high earning MD for life. stay poor.

I refuse to marry a dumb whore who demands an overpriced jew rock. I'll be alone forever if necessary.

a literal jew scam lol

Pawnshops are a good place to look and then you can get it nicely polished up and new looking at a jeweler

can u sum up the short article pls, this shit is too long for me.

thanks user. I didn't know much about diamonds but this was eye-opening

I bought asked my wife to marry her in 2012, so I bought a ring for like 8.5k because I had my first great job.

I have the best wife ever, so scored there, but I often do the little easy math in my head "How much money would that be worth if I'd put it into BTC" - like 8 million dollars right now.

Fun stuff, but yeah, 3k is plenty.

"I bought asked" - you can tell how fucking bright I am.

I had a woman propose to me and said she’d marry me with a macaroni ring.

If she does this consider it a good thing, return the ring, and dump the bitch on the spot. You've just saved half your assets.

That just means a $500 engagement ring is worth it because fuck marrying that bitch.

Is she a good hold?

Bullshit. It's a flex for women. They always want the best.
Dumb fuck!

Tell your brother not to suck so hard or use some lube. Faggot.

Honestly I'd try to make my own ring. If the bitch wasn't impressed by the result of my labour, she can go get fucked.

Imagine projecting your cuck fantasies onto everything

Nice id

Look at this fag dating a genuine girl who doesn't care how much an engagement ring costs haha... Probably just wants to marry him for his personality haha... What a loser

How to gain access to used diamonds to resell to undercut the jews?

If your future wife vares about how much a ring costs then re-evaluate your life choices

Same as wedding cost

Absolute wastes of money - nice way to start your future together with a huge lack of money

So I just brought home an $800 engagement gold ring with morganite. Did a little research and turns out if I was to sell it as a second-hand I'd get maybe 20% back if I'm lucky. Jewelry is an absolute fucking scam. I'm honestly considering returning it tomorrow.

Get a cheap, old ring and say it was your grandmother’s

Shoulda flown to Thailand with that money

Based and IDpilled

no shit

You serious? He just told you that a moment ago.

Literally try to resell anything you bought at any store...do you know markups exist?

Pardon my naivity for thinking golden jewelry might at least partially work a store of value of last resort. Now I know that jewelry is basically fancier type of clothing and an absolute waste of money, except for some top-end collectibles.

You should spent zero on this scam and if your girl complains you know she is trash and you should dump her

This. I’ve had two women tell me they wanted to marry me and didn’t need a diamond ring. I’ve always been outspoken against diamonds and Jews so they know exactly what they’re getting into with me.

Cope, you fucking brainlets are not even slightly redpilled on women. Ive literally been fucking so called modest conservative women days before they got married and married ones after. You’re never safe trusting women or 99.99% of the population for that matter and marriage is a meme brainlets.
