So true. I spent more money on my marriage than on my masters degree. Fuc
.
My wife has more gold and diamonds than money my family ever owned otherwise. All that stuff doesn't suite her, is locked up in locker rooms of some bank 364 days a year. (And yeah I pay for that fucking locker as well).
Any discussion of selling it would lead to a WWII like situation in the home. The cost of Gold might be skyrocketing but when you actually try to sell gold ornaments or diamonds it is a different game altogether because when I walk to sell the gold not one wants to buy it unless they know me or I pester them. So this is what happens when I met a jeweler to sell a gold chain my mother had made for me when I was 2 years old. Gold typically 15 times most costlier than that time. so I was expecting at least 1000% ROI.
1. I need to first determine if this is real Gold and how pure it is. For that you will have to pay me X.
2. This chain is old and I cant sell it the way it is, it needs to be melted and converted into something else so I will lose Y value in the process.
3. Making a new ornament out of this will lead to more loss of metal during melting and hence I will lose Z.
Then later he tells me that the gold is not "as pure" as I thought it to be. So eventually I make only 200% profit over period of around 12 years. (not to mention the feeling of getting cheated).
Scenario of diamond seems to be lot more similar to that of Gold.
Only if women had little brains.
