[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hard to effectively negotiate salary with a ring of that size, IMO.[/quote]

This could work in a different direction, putting upward pressure on the salary offer if the company wants to make their offer attractive enough that you take the job. An applicant of some wealth will not be enticed by a small salary.[/quote]

THIS.  What potential boss wouldn't prefer to negotiate salary with someone in an outfit from target than with someone in expensive clothes with a large ring?  Clearly the expectations of the potentially employee would be different.  One is expecting a lot, the other is clearly not.

OP, my thought on this is that if you like your ring, which I assume you do, wear it.  If people are going to judge you in a negative way for having a nice ring, you'll probably end up disliking them anyways.  If you're the kind of person who appreciates a ring like that (which I am, so I can relate), you're not going to be happy being judged by a bunch of people who have less than you who are constantly resentful of you for having nice things.[/quote]
