I love how odd that post is: "I couldn't find an engagement ring that I liked at first, but then I did. I hope one day our kids will tell their kids this story."

Maybe they're fishing for a "That sounds great, who did you use?" response as a chance to advertise for some company. Kind of clever, not a great strategy for this kind of board. but maybe on a larger forum for the general public it would work well.

He's actually stealth edited his post to include the link he's advertising for.

Oh good! Now I can flag it as spam.

EDIT: and it's already been removed. Mods are Johnny-on-the-spot today.

I was actually monitoring it expecting it to happen. Someone beat me to it.

Which is funny, because had he made it less obvious he could have had it left up. My own post from a couple years ago links directly to the jewelry store I used.

50k ring here and was worth every penny. She has a smile when she looks at it and makes her feel special. My rib likes nice stuff but well measured and balanced which is what matters to me.

I know diamonds are a scam but no different than bitcoins but people still buy it and has value.

I know many would think 50k on a diamond is crazy but that is in they eye of the beholder.

She is happy to drive a minivan and have a 50k ring. I know guys who would throw a fit spending 5k on a ring but turn around and plop down 100k for a car or boat. Seems extremely selfish if I driving my 70k Tesla when I tel my wife a 50k ring is a waste of money

balance is what’s important. Spend some, save some. Who cares what someone buys as long as they also save a good amount.

I spent $3,000 on my wife’s ring. The woman hates jewelry.
