What Celebrities Paid For Their Jewelry [VIDEO]

There's a lot of unemployment in this country. There's so much poverty in certain areas that we sometimes resemble a third world nation. And then you have the opposite end of the spectrum- rich celebrities spending huge bucks on "bling" , and some of them aren't even together anymore. Check this out.

None of these folks are country artists, because they have more sense I guess, but check this out. According to Newser.com, Jay-Z (Beyonce's hubby) gave her a $5 million dollar 18-karat ring.

Paris Hilton, who was once engaged to a shipping heir named.. PARIS (?), received a 24-karat $4.7 million ring.

And Kim Kardashian cashed in on a 20-karat ring at the cost of $2 million . Pretty good, for a two month relationship. Here's a video that shows some others

My ring that I have worn for 25 years was my father's wedding ring. He gave me his original one. I guess it got in the way when he was fishing, so he relinquished it. It cost me a whopping $12 to have it cleaned. I'm as happy as a clam.

Isn't it insane that even spending MILLIONS on someone doesn't secure a relationship any more than if you paid $12.00. What's your feeling on this? Are you as disgusted with the insane amounts of money that these people waste? Would love to hear your comments
