i'm guessing people will ignore what caposauvage is saying and just dismiss it as pocket watching.

It's fakkit shyt, tbh.

Bringing race into everything is lame as fukk.

Like it would be better to see a young brother blow 200k on a necklace if the seller was "racially acceptable" to the coli.

The act is cringe-worthy any way you slice it.

But I'm fiscally conservative and don't give a fukk about flashiness.

So your mileage may vary.

7 Reasons Why Diamonds Are a Waste of Your Money

1) The most common misconception about engagement rings is that they’re some kind of ancient tradition that’s deeply embedded in human history in societies around the world. This is completely false. The idea of a diamond engagement ring is roughly a century old. Guess who invented the concept? Not surprisingly, it’s the same people who mined the diamonds — the De Beers diamond syndicate. How far did De Beers go in their quest to create demand for diamonds? Edward Jay Epstein notes in his famous investigative article:

“In its 1947 strategy plan, the advertising agency strongly emphasized a psychological approach. “We are dealing with a problem in mass psychology. We seek to ... strengthen the tradition of the diamond engagement ring — to make it a psychological necessity capable of competing successfully at the retail level with utility goods and services....” It defined as its target audience “some 70 million people 15 years and over whose opinion we hope to influence in support of our objectives.” N. W. Ayer outlined a subtle program that included arranging for lecturers to visit high schools across the country. “All of these lectures revolve around the diamond engagement ring, and are reaching thousands of girls in their assemblies, classes and informal meetings in our leading educational institutions,the agency explained in a memorandum to De Beers.”

I have nothing against clever marketing campaigns, but this is different. It’s not like with cars, for example. You know you need a car, so the car companies compete for your attention with their ads.

In this case De Beers spent millions upon millions convincing the public that they needed to buy a product that they basically created out of thin air (thin air that they alone controlled).

2) Diamonds are not an investment — they are a retail product like any other. People explain away spending thousands of dollars on a little stone because they mistakenly believe that the diamond is a solid investment. Are there any other investment classes where the person selling you the asset makes a minimum 10 percent profit margin (usually much more)? Most people would be lucky to get half of what they paid if they tried to sell a ring the day after they bought it. Don’t fool yourself into thinking that buying a diamond is a safe place to put away money for a rainy day.


He is literally handing that jeweler money for free. if you read the above. Diamond jewelry is not an investment and loses value faster than todays computer devices. You can buy a iPhone today and still sell it to someone online for more than half of what it costs on the day you bought it.

I've been wondering for a long time, are there any Black Jewelers?

Because I follow a lot on rappers on instagram and every single jeweler is either Arab, Asian or Jewish :dahell:

I've never been into chains like that but he's free to do whatever he wants with his hardearned money.

His workrate this year has been incredible to the point hearing him on songs is now almost insufferable.

Pocket watchers and armchair accountants the WOAT:hhh::scust:

De Beers
He soon secured funding from the Rothschild family, who would finance his business expansion. De Beers Consolidated Mines was formed in 1888 by the merger of the companies of Barney Barnato and Cecil Rhodes, by which time the company was the sole owner of all diamond mining operations in the country.

How does De Beers control the diamond market?
De Beers successfully influenced just about all of the world's rough suppliers to sell production through the De Beers channel, gaining control of the global supply not produced by De Beers mines. The cartel was born, giving Oppenheimer the power to influence diamond supply and thus diamond prices.Apr 9, 2013
