My cousin is a diamond broker and he knows all kinds of jewelry makers. He hooked me up with a beautiful diamond and a jeweler that designed the ring around the diamond.

Size matters - ~1.5 is enough for the lady to feel good about what she is wearing compared to her friends - cut is equally important - color F/G is good enough and VVS1/2 is about right

That’ll run you ~16-22k depending on where you buy it from. The ladies love Tiffany’s

So the OT ballers are concerned about expensive cars but not necessarily nice engagement rings? That what I’m picking up here?

If so, guess I’ll go the 2 carat route and a supercharged Range Rover? Right?

My wife's ring was 1.1 carat. If she wants more than that, your wife is not really in love with you.

Mrs. Spas has an expensive ring. I would have bought a cheaper one if I had to do it again

Blue nile, brother. They’ll even let you finance it interest free for twelve months. True ballers use other people’s money for free

a few points below the next carat is cheaper. Buy the diamond and the setting separate. If in baton rouge, check out Hannon's.

I don’t even remember the size. I know what she wanted and had already been saving for a while before we went look (I’m a procrastinator). Had saved enough to get diamonds in the band, and the matching wedding band.



Like I said, I had a while to save.

You the man. If you weren’t a scummy PI attorney I’d try to buy you a drink sometime... ;) kidding of course (about being scummy, but not about the drink). Thanks for the advice!

Sorry for wanting to buy something nice for my future wife. I’m sure you wife loves the .25 marquise you splurged for, after paying $1500 a month for your 2018 F250

Future Mrs. Boosie wanted something simple. Solid gold band and one diamond on top. Real easy all around with blue nile. Had it shipped to my office and it was there 2 days later. Came with appraisal for insurance purposes.

Mrs. Smith know what she wants?
