    Two months is what DeBeirs, the assholes who hold a monopoly on diamonds, arbitrarily told people to spend on a diamond.

    Ultimately it should be what makes both parties happy.

      Originally in the they said it was one months’ salary. They then upped it two months. And they then upped it Three months

      You can also see in the article that they hoard about 60% of the world’s diamonds. De Beers is a corrupt company sitting on top of a corrupt system built on blood and death.

      When I still loved her, I got my ex an engagement that was about two days salary tbh. She had many faults, but that’s about the only thing she never gave me shit for.
