And so begins your life of "Give Me, Give Me" and if you start off with Gold/Platinum, where will it end?.....this doe'nt bode well.

Any Fiance who ask for Gold/Platinum, in this Financial Climate: Bailouts, Foreclosures, Bankruptcies, ect...

You should be seriously thinking about where her values are and what kind of husband your gonna be.


I have Bank, I am a Millionaire. My Wife wears a $600 gold band, I wear a $300 Gold band, we own our home, land, cars and vans, have cash, silver, stocks ect...

Just putting that out there OP.

Platinum and gold alloy


Put into a clean crucible 7 1/2 drs. of pure gold and when perfectly melted, throw in 1/2 a dr. of platinum. The 2 metals will combine intimately forming an alloy rather whiter than pure gold, but remarkably ductile and elastic; it is also less perishable than pure gold or jeweller's gold; but more readily fusible than that metal.

These excellent qualities must render this alloy an object of great interest to workers in metals. For springs, where steel cannot be used, it will prove exceedingly advantageous.

It is a curious circumstance, that the alloy of gold and platinum is soluble in nitric acid, which does not act on either of the metals in a separate state. It is remarkable, too, that the alloy has very nearly the color of platinum, even when composed of 11 parts of gold to 1 of the former metal.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2529



Soluble eh??? No thanks
Each time a person stands for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he or she sends forth a tiny ripple of hope. And crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance. Few are willing to embrace the disapproval of their fellows, the censure of their colleagues, the wrath of their society. Moral courage is a rarer commodity than bravery in battle or great intelligence. Yet it is the one essential vital quality for those who seek to change a world that yields most painfully to change. [Robert F. Kennedy]

same here.

more wealthy people KNOW NOT to spend $ on jewelry.

when I see a woman with a big rock on her finger i know they are up to their eyeballs in debt.

I only learned this AFTER i came into $ (inheritance). When you don't have money you want to appear like you do (hence flashy cars & jewelry). When you do have real money you want to preserve it and save. i make a modest salary and i would never flash my true wealth with jewelry.

my spouse feels the same way. we are savers. but we live a very comfortable life.

She did not ask for a diamond, just a wedding band, so why get your backs up over this?

She is not being bossy; most straight men don’t have a clue about women’s jewelry and she knows this.

At least she is giving you some ideas and doesn’t expect you to read her mind. Unfortunately, I don’t think what she is asking for exists in a commercial market. (I could be wrong, but you tickled my curiosity and I was unable to find it.)

I would personally recommend platinum, as it is more resistant to scratches than 18kt gold, especially if she does a lot of work with her hands or is the outdoor type. Go to ebay and search wedding bands and look at them with her to get a better idea of what she likes and what you like as well.

Hopefully she will wear the ring with pride the rest of her life, so you have every reason to make sure that she is happy with your choice and you with hers.

Best wishes, and congratulations.
