Notes -
This is excellent advice for anyone who is currently engaged to and planning on marrying a man. All of those rational explanations will be very convincing if we make the one small assumption that his fiance is, in fact, a bearded adult male who will nod sagely and propose to spend the money on matching rifles and a sensible investment portfolio instead.
Unfortunately it may not be the best route to avoiding hurt feelings if he's for some reason planning on marrying a woman.
Yes, quality firearms are solid store of value at worst, appreciating asset at best, unlike shiney stones ;-)
BTW, do not mistake me for dour puritan hating all luxury, there is nothing wrong with jewelry - trad gold and silver that serves as store of value for bad times, not modern diamond fraud.
Forgive my rant, I know that there are much worse thing going on in the world than diamond industry, but this particular scam somehow triggers me.
(even many hard right wingers feel this way, you do not have to be leftist (if you see me as leftist) to despise such business)

Well apparently if her feelings are hurt by this approach you should dump her. So... it won't be a problem for long I guess? But it is an excellent fast track approach for staying single, so I guess there's that.
