The Engagement Ring Bling
|
How much should you spend on a diamond engagement ring?
$100?
$1000?
How about a whopping $1 million?
That's what Donald Trump just spent on an engagement ring for his lovely wife to be, Melania Knauss. Can you imagine what it must be like to wear any ring worth that much on a daily basis?
The Donald must hire beefy security guards with names like Wolfgang and Spike just to watch over Melania every time her and her delicate ring finger step out the door.
Buying expensive diamond jewelry for their significant others seem to be a Trump family trait. Well, you've gotta do something with all that money besides invest in real estate deals.
Trump's son, Donald Jr. has just proposed to his fiancée, Vanessa Haydon, with a very impressive four-carat emerald cut diamond ring with a diamond-encrusted platinum band. However, Vanessa's ring can be considered a real bargain at a cost of only $100,000.
While most regular folks will not be able to come close to spending that kind of money on an engagement ring for their sweethearts, there are still many very wonderful options if you're looking to buy a diamond engagement ring, wedding ring, or wedding band online.
You should be able to find the perfect ring online to fit into your budget. You can even buy a custom engagement ring or wedding ring for a very reasonable price.
So take comfort in the fact that you don't have to be rich like the Trumps to present your loved one with a truly beautiful engagement ring that will make everyone feel very rich indeed.
