This has been a conversation that is relevant to a few friends ATM. Two questions.
First is, when considering to buy an engagement ring, what is a reasonable amount to spend. $5k, $10k, more?
Sure I realise that it comes down to your income or ability to pay, tastes etc. I have heard some female friends talking about rings that they like, which are $10k some even closer to $15k.
How did others here decide how much to spend on an engagement ring? Was it a joint decision?
Note to self: increase cash buffer
Second is, do guys here wear wedding rings?
I know my father for instance has never worn his and yes he is still happily married to my mother
A couple of close friends who are married, one wears his, another doesn't.
Interested to hear people's thoughts.
