Ring by Cartier


During my warm-up at the gym everyday, I read magazines.  People bring in their magazines from home and leave them for others to read.  Since I am there five times a week, I get to read quite a few magazines.  You may have noticed that I am commenting more on articles and such. 

I have seen this ring, pictured above, in quite a few of the magazines.  I think it is beautiful.  I decided to find out how much it costs, despite the fact that I don't have any money or anywhere special to wear it.  I went on Cartier's website and they require an e-mail address for prices.  Since I had to sign up to find out, I thought I would share in case any of you were wondering too....

$26,700 

That makes it about the same price as my car.  Oh well...  My mom said that it would make a nice wedding ring.  Too bad I don't know any wealthy outstanding guys that are falling over themselves to marry me.  Oh & that I on my anti-dating kick, which pretty much ensures that I will not be finding someone in the near future.  To be honest though, I can't imagine having enough money to think that spending that amount on a ring is worth it.  There will always be someone who needs help.  Anyway, I think it is beautiful.

I know of a couple that spent $20,000 on their wedding and reception. I guess that's the going rate these days for some. At the time, I couldn't help but think of all the things I could spend $20,000 on.

PS. It's a nice ring, but how many people could that feed (or educate or provide medical care for) in Haiti?? Yeah.

I decided that it was not an important part of my life to have that expensive of a ring. Especially after finding out about 'blood diamonds' and what some people have gone through for the much coveted diamond. However I am a girly girl and do like nice looking rings. My solution? Fake diamonds! My ring is beautiful huge and very expensive looking. Actual cost...$80!
