Any Amount Too Much Or Too Cheap For An Engagement Ring? by 0ubenji(m): 6:27pm On Jul 24, 2016 |
Evolution has taught us to follow the crowd. We are all influenced to some degree by mass behaviour of other people as regards weddings and all. Researching what a person spends on their engagement ring gives us a benchmark to compare our own budget. Women do this job mostly, wanting everything related to their wedding completely unique. From the types, styles and designers of the gown and suits to the type of engagement ring to buy. We, the men are usually obliged to cough out real handy cash to let the spouse get the best taste of that befitting engagement ring. Spend too much and it could be viewed as overkill. Spend too little and it might be considered as embarrassingly cheap. We are all influenced by choking trends and tradition. Tradition has suggested "classic-taste" men spend between 1-3 months of their salary on an engagement ring. Around 66% of the average man buying engagement rings spend below a month’s salary on their engagement ring purchase. Personal finances are stretched for most people and not so for others Does the seeming cost of a couple's engagement ring create any impression of being too cheap a couple or being wasteful?...does it really matter the amount a couple splash on just a ring?

My engagement ring had better not be cheap...ofcourse I won't want you to spend so much on a ring I'd be wearing for a couple of months tops, but then again it has to be above average |
