Having just purchased an engagement ring, I can definitely say it's one of the most retarded things you can possibly blow a huge load of money on

Agreed its a terrible financial investment, but buying something they like is a great sanity investment.

I spent 2500. I don't give a frick what the standard is supposed to be.

From my observations, the longest marriages involve the cheapest rings. No ring or some bullshite homemade something equals short marriage as well. No way in hell I'd spend two months or even one months income on a ring. Of course, this will vary depending on income. Correct answer is not enough to cause you any financial distress.

My brother many years back ordered his future wife a 30,000 dollar ring. When he told that he picked one out she replied it better not be under $10,000 . Next morning he cancelled the order a picked her a $1,500 ring.

Some of us got married when we were just ball boys, well before we attained baller status.

I think you should spend under 5k on the engagement ring then upgrade it for her at 10 years if you make it that long and are more financially stable.

Great strategy.... Don't blow that cash early. You still gotta do stuff for your 10/25 year

I just can't understand taking out a loan for a shiny rock that a slave picked up somewhere in Africa.
