I came across this post in the r/gold subreddit. When you talk about people having more money than sense, this fits it to a "T." The author was showing off the 22k gold ring they bought. The only problem is it didn't quite fit.
Multiple people told the author it's too small and they need to get it resized. That went over about as well as you'd think coming from someone lost in their own ignorance.
They continued to double down on their stupidity.
I get that it's easy to become defensive and lash out when others are criticizing you, but when everyone is clearly telling you the ring is too small and will cause an issue, it'd be smart to heed their advice. Even if you don't believe it, take it to a professional jeweler and ask.
I took my ring to a jeweler because I thought it felt too loose and considered going a size smaller. They asked if I could easily move it over the knuckle to take it on and off, and I could. They asked if I shook my hand rapidly would it fall off. It wouldn't and I demonstrated it for them. After discussing it with them, they suggested it's a good size because if something were to happen to my finger there's room for that but not so much room I risk losing the ring.
We have experts in various fields and industries for a reason, and to disregard their advice will only lead to our downfall in the long run. Hopefully this person realizes their mistake before it's too late. Don't be like this person. Heed advice, ask questions, and consult experts before you make a decision you'll regret.
