I think i have spent total around 6k on my wife's ring initial engagement ring was 4K.... then after a few years of using it as a wedding band I then was able to buy a wedding band.... but she didn't want one that doesn't match sooooo..... we bought a whole new set and had the Diamond reset about 1.5K...... then there was the re sizing first and second time

Yup i am almost at the 6K mark. I figured i can get the ring plus our bands with that sum. I am having it all custom made so we shall see how it all goes.

Yeah i am going with an aquamarine gem as the main piece surrounded with about 1-2 TCW on a white gold setting. The gem is very specific as she loves the ocean and sea life. Me being an Aquarius also plays in nicely with the concept of it all. I have the design drawn out just need to get it made.

I hope that is that it is! Smaller is better, I don't need awkward or off balance design, I want a good, small, and relatively ergonomic camera.

Each employee makes $354 - $450 a month and he made $14M last year? A little lopsided no matter how generous the act was.

About as lopsided as many successful companies around the world.

That's great! :D

This way it is a psychological effect on workers that they will want to work then. Or something technical like that ;)
