A $2 million engagement ring; Girls: do you want it? Guys: wanna spend for it?

hi sweet pea, if i were as rich as Kris Humphries, yes, I would definitely give that expensive ring to my fiancee. for me, buying expensive things for my fiancee/girlfriend is a way to prove that I really love her. if I didn't love her, I would just buy her cheap things. I would not sincerely spend much money for someone that I don't love:)

It's sort of a fairy tale story but, if that's his way of showing how he really feels about his woman and soon to be wife, then so be it. It just so happens that the guy is so rich and can buy the most expensive of things. Since he can afford it then why would he be selfish to not give the woman he loves the best thing that he can provide. It's the same thing as when you do everything for that one special person by making sacrifices and all that. Each of us has his own way of showing and professing our love to someone. If by any chance, I get a ring that's worth that much, I would like it. Just being honest. But if the money used is like his or our supposed lifetime savings, then I wouldn't want that. I'd still go for practicality in the real world.

One one hand , they can afford it why not ...on the other hand , 2 million is a bit ridiculous just for a piece of ring. So where do I stand on this one? In the middle ...if the marriage is happy then it's all worth it even the 2 million can't match. Congrats to her anyway ...Kris seems like a good fit for her ...

Well, if I am rich and afford to buy that ring, why not? Since I am a poor guy and not afford that amount of ring...I'd be better to go on a normal way of engagement ring...

I'd rather have a not-so-expensive ring and a grand house. I know they could afford those things, but, I just think that those could buy a lot of houses for some suffering people who don't even have a home. Or, imagine the number of people it could feed! I agree, it wouldn't guarantee a lasting marriage. I'd rather have no ring at all, and have a happy marriage, than the most expensive ring but a marriage that lasts a month!

Unless I am filthy rich, I will not spend this sort on unnecessary money on an engagement ring. I don't think it is worth it. 20 carat ring is definitely a huge on and i think it would be quite heavy too. If i were to wear it out to street, i would keep worrying that i will lose it and eventually not wear it out. then, what is the purpose of a ring who stays at home? :) Furthermore, i think the engagement ring represent how much your other half love you and cannot be calculated using money.

Nope, it sure doesn't. No marriage is ever guaranteed, no matter how much the ring and wedding cost. And no, I would not want a ring like that...not unless I could sell it and use the money to buy things that are more practical, that is. I would never want something that valuable on my finger. Not only is it ridiculous to spend so much on a piece of jewelry, but I'd be too nervous to wear it! Thanks, but no thanks, I'm happy enough with both of my rings. And best of all my husband didn't have to pay an arm and a leg for them! Happy mylotting!

I don't know....to each his own. I honestly think its kind of dumb to spend that much money on a ring. It seems to be more of a statement to the world than proof of love in my opinion. I don't have money so maybe my opinion isn't valid but to me it just seems like such a waste to spend that kind of money on a ring and a lavish wedding. I just don't see the connection with the cost of the ring and wedding to the amount of love....there is none. It all seems to be for show.

I think this is another way to draw attention to herself. I probably will never see 2 million dollars in my life unless I win the lottery. But if I ever did have that much money to spend, a 20 carat ring would not be on my list of things to buy. Size and price shouldn't matter, but rather the meaning and sentiment behind the ring should be the most important. The size or price of the ring does not determine the longevity of the relationship, so I would not want my boyfriend to spend that much on a ring.

I dunno. This seems like a Facepalm worthy move. Meh, as long as you show appreciation and don't tweet it to the many people around her. She'd be fine.

I think this is another slap to the face of the poor people of the world. When there are so much poverty, and strife everywhere, these kind of people try and outdo each other is showing everybody how rich they are. Yes, it might be none of our business, but things like these shouldn't be leaked out to the public in the first place. They're just opening themselves to criticism. No, I wouldn't spend that much.

Hi Sweet_pea, I would say a big No for such a ring. And I would never allow my hubby to think of it rather. I feel it is not needed to show the true love. As true love is no where compared to $2 million. True love is more valuable than anything else.

Hi sweet_pea I would only want it if my partner had well over the millions to spare for it. But personally no I would not want and or expect such an expensive and lucrative ring. Where would I wear it and be safe not to mention being afraid to be killed over it. I love my boyfriend dearly and whatever he can afford and get would be fine with me. See I love him for him and not for what he can or should get me. I would think the rent and bills are way more important then a rock sitting on my finger and or safe in which I could not wear just anywhere. lol

Yes i do love one like that. I saw how Kris treated Kim when she about to kiss him on E channel, you know what he did, he Burp in her face....Ewwww. Kris ring might not worth a cent if he keeps on doing inmoral attitude to one of the most beautiful girl in the world. Right Kim?

hi sweetpea lost my response copy paste. if I had 2 million dollars I wo uld buy a condo and keep the other million dollars tol live on., why spend that much on a ring when you cou ld have a home and money to live on instead.I would never want a ring that dear as someone would probably knock me out and steal it.

That is way tooo much sweet pea. Engagement rings that costs that much cannot guarantee happiness in a marriage, often times too much money even gets in the way. These people do not even know what to do with their money that they spend it like that. Where in fact i know some people who do not have much, not even a wedding but are living happily as husband and wife. I would not ask my husband that much, as long as we are both happy then everything is fine.

If we have a LOT of spare cash and won't go bankrupt after such spending, then I'll go for it! Again, as long as it's not detrimental to our financial independence, the go go go!

Two-million IS NOT a lot of money for him! That's what 'the jewelry purchase' says to me, anyway. Same with the expense of the wedding. It sounds/looks to me like Kirk Humphreys is saying that the $2,000,000 and the wedding-expenses are NOTHING compared to the wonderfulness of Kim Kardashian's happiness. Although ... aren't weddings paid-for by the FATHER OF THE BRIDE? (saying the same thing about Kim, just as a daughter instead of as a wife)

Yes I would absolutely love to have one of those lol But I wouldn't mind a less expensive one if my other half won't be able to afford it!!

for those who can afford it, it's alright if they would give their partner an expensive ring. but if the relationship failed, just make sure that you wouldn't be so sorry that you had given up a whooping 2 million just for an engagement ring. after all, marriage is not about the glamorous ring or classy ceremony. it's true that it would make your special day memorable but let's bear in mind that the true essence of being married to someone is the holiness and the loyalty that both of you had promised in front of God. it's on how you managed through the obstacles that we're given to you. let's just wish for the best for Kim and Kris.
