Actually, I would rather marry the woman who puts out without financial compensation. She is less likely to be a vapid whore.

Whoops! Well, we may as well get a bigger diamond on the next one, honey!

I told my wife she can either insure her ring or not, it's up to her. But if she ever loses it we'll get her replacement from the same place we got mine: pawn shop for $35.

Always make sure to schedule expensive jewelry on your homeowners inurance. Specifically scheduled items are generally covered for loss and partial loss(ring goes down disposal, lose it in the yard, or even if just the diamond comes loose and falls out).

If you just use the standard jewelry coverage built into the policy, losing an item is not a covered peril. It's not going to be covered unless it's stolen in a burglary, burned up in a fire, etc. And even then, most homeowners policies have pretty low limits on jewelry. By default, our policies only cover up to $1500 per item.

My wifes ring appraised for like $11K, and it costs about $90 a year to have it scheduled and insured for loss. Well worth it.

Same. We have a separate thing on our insurance for her ring. Can't remember how much it is, but it's cheaper than $90 a year (although hers also isn't $11k).

She's very simple so her wedding band was fairly cheap, and I'm not sure what an 11k ring looks like (does it suck your dick?) so the money isn't really the problem. You know women, sentimental and shit. She delivers mail so the search area is like a 30 mile radius.

Note that I said "appraised for 11K". I didn't even spend half that much. Jewelry prices/appraisals are such a racket. Never pay more than 50% of what appraisal is.

I agree with joeboo says and was advised the same when we bought our house and got homeowners insurance.

and yeah, my wife's ring appraised for 2.5x what I paid for it.

I got married last weekend. Kind of surreal, we spent a year planning it basically and I barely remember most of the ceremony.

Yeah thats how mine went. Throw some alcohol into the mix and you wake up the next day wondering why the fuck you spent $15,000 feeding the 3/4 of people you have not seen since the last funeral. My step dad telling me to "reserve" an extra 10 seats for loser family mebers ($45 a plate+ alcohol) which never bothered to show up.

Then you find out how fucking cheap some of them are (including your clsose friends). Not that I expected anything, but would of respected more of these people if they have not given me anything rather than tossing $20 into an envelope or giving me a $10 toaster. Or a set of salt and pepper shakers. Fuck off.

Ain't that the truth. My favorite gift was from a family on my wife's side...there's 5 of them(husband, wife, and 3 kids aged roughly 8-12), and they specifically requested adult meals for all 3 kids rather than the cheaper kids meal choices(WTF 8 year old wants salmon and rice pilaf instead of chicken strips and fries). So they end up costing us roughly $200 in food, and gave us a card with $15 cash in it. the $15 specifically cracks me up, because you have to make an extra effort to get that amount in cash, slipping a $20 in there would be one thing, but in this day and age who often has 5s and 10s on them at all times? They had to make an extra effort to not just stop by an ATM and give us an easy $20. Lol. Fuckers.
