You're right.  I know tons of people with a lot of money:  my family, all of my neighbors, many of my friends, fellow parents at our private school, and frankly, myself.  None of the people I know would shop at Tiffany for serious jewelry.  They shop at places like Boone & Sons, Pampillonia, Chas. Schwartz and with private jewelers here and in NY.  I agree with the poster who equated Tiffany to Pottery Barn.  Anyone who knows better would prefer a custom piece to something mass-produced and overpriced.

Back to the original question.  I did not wear my 3 carat engagement ring when I was interviewing at law firms many moons ago.  Mainly, I didn't want to draw attention to the fact that I was married and of child-bearing age.  If I were to jump back in the law firm arena at this point in my life, post-kids, I wouldn't hesitate to wear it.[/quote]

Just curious, when you reference "a lot of money" how much are you talking about?[/quote]

"A lot of money" can range vastly.  At a minimum, at least a million in the bank and a mid to high 7-figure HHI, then ranging up to the type of wealth where one's name is on a number of buildings throughout the country.  [/quote]

So your family members, all of your neighbors and many of your friends make in the mid to high millions? Wow, I thought my family/friends were rich making in the mid to high 6 figures. I think 700,000 - 999,999 is pretty good. Did you mean 6 figures?[/quote]
