    About every time you come out with a new video I scroll down and watch one I haven't watched before. Great video! I have my mother's engagement ring and wedding band. I don't know who I'll give it to.

    My wife's engagement ring is my birthstone, which was her idea, a peridot. It's cheap(probably the cheapest gem stone), has meaning, and is really unique. She gets compliments on it far more often than her friends with big diamonds. The only drawback is that it is extremely soft and we have to replace it every few years, but we usually just do a service to replace some micro pave' diamonds, and clean it all at once. We keep the peridots and next service I am going to have them all set in earring studs to give to my daughters.

    I knew diamonds were a scam once I went on a curse and saw how hard they infulanced people to buy diamonds, saying things like "If you like it, buy it!" And "diamonds are an investment! Something you can hand down to the grand kids!" And all that. Curse lines really push this cheap stuff... It's sickening.

    Diamonds were sized by how much he made. It was supposed to be 3 months salary….so if a gal got a bigger ring she was showing she’d be well kept.

    My wife's ring actually has a morganite stone, we shopped for aesthetics rather than perceived "value" (since I knew diamond prices are generally bs).

    As far as i can see, the best diamonds (other than big stones) is the Australian pink Argyle diamonds. The price has probably gone through the roof as they have stopped mining. Even still, would need to be a decentish stone.

    I don’t feel bad on Valentine’s Day because I’m a lifelong confirmed, bachelor. Just the money I’ve saved on Valentine’s Day over my life time is 6,000.00 or more. Then if you go further and include marriage-divorce-children that sum goes through the roof at least 500,000.00 and the state I live in; if married 10 or more years theirs a lifetime alimony involved which could push that figure over 800,000.00 dollars.

    bought a ring from walmart for $300 12 years ago. statistically, the more money you spend on a wedding the more likely it is to fail. ours literally cost 20 in gas for our friend to marry us. love the vids man, way more realistic and entertaining than pawnstars, no offense to those guys. ty, and keep em coming.

    I think the problem with selling certain historical merchandise is dealing with the age range and mentality of the folks who would pay money for it. If it becomes too much of a hassle, you could melt it down and start an occasional RUclips side series :)

    I would argue that De Beers is not an example of capitalism. being that they corner the market, they own all the major mines, they pay off governments that prevent competition, etc. Capitalism expects the opportunity for competition, but De Beers is able to crush competition through government controls.

    "Hi, if you're looking for a quick payday, rob THIS HOUSE. Here's the address."
    And if this "Internet Tough Guy" read this, he'll give you more info e.g. "Good luck getting past my ACME9000 security system pal."
    facepalm.
