It seems the rules for how much to spend on an engagement ring aren’t dead yet -- at least to some. A woman reportedly returned her engagement ring to her partner because it didn’t cost 10% of his salary. The ring, which is made of white gold with diamonds and sapphire, cost the man about $3,000. However, he allegedly makes enough that if he followed the 10% rule, which says he should spend one-tenth of his salary on an engagement ring, he should have spent between $10,000 and $15,000. “Initially she was very happy with it until her mother (a jeweler) called it cheap,” the man wrote.
