you should have put that ring on your homeowner's insurance...assuming your a homeowner.

i thought i did. didn't realize at the time that it only counted if they were lost related to something with the house (theft, fire, whatever). i needed a different type of insurance to cover plain old loss. expensive lesson.

I thought your wife was the one with the money.


My wife also lost the first ring I got her (not a wedding or engagement ring). Good thing it only cost $70.


I am kinda shocked you replaced it with another ring that expensive. Why not just get a cheapo $300 ring instead?

because she doesn't want to wear a $300 cheapo engagement ring for the rest of her life. she was very attached to her ring. sadly, not physically attached. i should have it grafted to her skin except she has to take it off to do surgeries.

Seething you and wifey are both smarter than this. Stop smoking shrooms with the other OP rejects.
You already lost one 9k ring that insurance won't cover.
Her situation hasn't changed as you said, she will still have to take any replacement ring off to do her job.
Plus, you both suck at keeping track of said ring at other times as well, unless she was doing surgery at the Mexican restaurant.

Have her find something she can get attached to that isn't as work impeding as a ring. Maybe a broach or a necklace.

There are some rings you don't have to take off to do surgery!

Yup and generally unless you schedule an expensive piece of jewelry onto a homeowners policy then it wouldn't be covered even if your house burnt down or it was stolen.

The industry standard for homeowners policy jewelry coverage is only $1,500, so those of you that have something worth more then that make sure it's covered.


Anytime you buy something expensive like that (art, furs, wine collection) you should always buy a valuable articles floater. Rather inexpensive and will cover it for pretty much everything except intentional losses.
