Plus the $4-8K I saved went toward our house which I'm renovating.... ohhh and when we went to Vegas to get married, we had a couple of grand more to have fun with.

You make a valid point but then totally discredit yourself by admitting that you used some of the money saved on a ring to throw away gambling. Everybody has their own priorities and these often include the ability indulge in a certain amount of discretionary spending. An engagement ring falls into this category.

Sorry dude, while you assume I meant gambling, I didn't.

We went to a bunch of shows (Carrot top, David Copperfield, a couple of topless reviews) , drove to the grand canyon, did the damn tour, stayed in a suite all 8 nights, and ate at a lot of 5 star restaurants my wife has always wanted to try. We did things that we'll remember for the rest of our lives... to this day we see something on tv and say "Hey, we did that! That was awesome!"

btw, we only gambled $170... which $150 was from my wife on the 25cent slots.

Wow, Vegas, that's a trip of a lifetime...

wow...you know, I always thought you seemed like a pretty nice guy, but that was a total douchebag comment.

Hopefully Lola teaches you some manners.

I think your view of the normal world is skewed by the unusually large amount of money and time you seem to have available.

2 words to remember when buying a diamond.

cubic zirconia

Get her one so big she will be afraid to wear it in public. That way it won't get scratched or broken.

Then just hand her an appraisal for some real diamond ring that has a similar carat. She will never know!

Just make sure you can keep a secret. You know how well we all keep a secret here...

Then tell her you just won 10k in a lottery and your buying a new house!

SCORE!!!


Or you can get her this and wait until the actual marriage ring to blow a wad of, uhmm, dough on her. I don't like to put the carat before the horse, myself, but that's your call. Lab Made Saphhire Love Grows Journey Pendant
