How much did you pay for your engagement ring in today’s standards?

What are the numbers? I heard some the other day and was shocked on what normal is.

Here is a calculator for inflation:

In the running for dumbest part of our culture

Most women disagree.

It's part of our culture because most people agree to it

My sister had a FB post with tons of comments about wedding rings

KingDave

There was a poll on our singles FB page

Big ole fake CZ here.

Does she know?

conetah

6/27/20 8:46am

Yea. She’s kind of vain and kind of not I guess.

cougfanz

6/27/20 8:48am

They always know

KingDave

Diamonds are a girls best friend. Makes sense.

conetah

My wife now wears her moms ring since she passed away.

Cost me three months salary

And adjusted for inflation?

I got a nice ring with a CZ for $800 (adjusted for inflation), and for our 10th anniversary I bought

KingDave

I spent a few grand on my wife’s. Definitely not worth it.

Duke Silver

6/27/20 8:48am

Agreed. My fiancée insists on spending multiple hundreds on my ring. I’d rather have a $40 tungsten one. It looks better

yaxcoug

6/27/20 9:10am

Yup. Love my tungsten ring. $20 on amazon

My wife knows someone who insisted her boyfriend give her a $10K ring. It was so

mwcoug

6/27/20 8:52am

If a girl insists on getting a $10k ring, you don’t marry that girl.

Duke Silver

6/27/20 8:53am

Shocker...now some other poor guy is getting a master’s in high maintenance

BlooCoog

Where's the zero option? HCBW would have reconsidered if I had wasted money on an engagement ring.

ColoSpgs

6/27/20 8:53am

Sounds like you’ve got yourself a dude

conetah

6/27/20 9:08am

These answers are skewed lower because Mormons generally get married so young and broke.

TCuz

6/27/20 9:02am

I wish everyone would get married broke

Isn’t doing an engagement and wedding ring a thing for some people?

Pepe

6/27/20 9:27am

Pretty normal. I bought my wife an engagement ring and then a wedding band.

TCuz

6/27/20 9:30am

Atlantic article on how DeBeers invented the entire "tradition" less than 100 years ago. Sheeple.

ColoSpgs

6/27/20 9:09am

Um, $17.50. Why no such option?

A practice that preys on the lower half of society. Needs to go
