Total carat weight isn't really indicative of an expensive diamond. A solitare diamond will typically be much more expensive than a ring comprised of many smaller diamonds. The one there in the photo appears to be many smaller diamonds with a smaller center stone. Regardless you are talking thousands of dollars.

Congratulations to Tommy.

The guy might have a job and has been saving his pennies. His parents may have helped. It could be a family heirloom. He could have found it on the side of the road. Or in a Crackerjack box.

Anyways, congrats to one of the good guys. Have a good long life. Go Huskies!!

That's probably the bigger point. Whether it's $500 or $50k, who cares.

The thread title wasn’t meant the way it seems to be being taken. Just a funny way to introduce this congratulatory thread for a great young man and true blue Husky!

.1% may say they don’t out loud

But they still do

 

[Adios]

Did he have an old fiance?

 

[UConnDan97]

If he went to Auburn, I would definitely know where he got the money from...

Congrats to the future bride and groom!

She does.

As a wise man once told me, it's not the size of the stone, but the size of the bo.... Errr, nevermind.
Congrats to Tommy and the future Mrs. Myers!!!

And 100% of their friends will let her know how much she should care.

What's the rule of thumb? Three months income? Smart to do this before he starts working full time.

I think that rule has gone to wayside now that the median income isn’t like $30k. At least that’s how I hope my fiancé feels! I sunk a couple paychecks in and got her a very nice ring.

Like you actually told your girlfriend what your take home pay was BEFORE you were engaged.

The ring is cheap... it’s the wife that will cost you a fortune!
