Is a $20k ring really go to bring you more happiness? So wasting $12k on a bigger diamond is worth something to you?
Yes, I have spent money on dumber things that don't last. At least a ring lasts forever.
No it won't change my life but to me it's a good way to spend that money.
Instead of wasting your money on stupid material things you could put it to some good use in your community.

I know because It was appraised when purchased for insurance purposes. I love it and it makes me happy looking at it everyday. It's beautiful and sparkles even when it's not clean. Most of my friends have at least a 2 carat diamond- and I don't hang around insanely wealthy people- just seems like the norm to me. I love jewelry though. I work with someone whose just got a 4 carat ring- now is that a bit much? well maybe, but I think it's beautiful.
