A man walks into a jewelry store

A man walks into a jewelry store to buy his girlfriend an engagement ring.

Looking behind the glass case, he comes across an exquisite band with a handsome-sized rock in its center.

“Excuse me sir,” the gentleman says to the salesman.

“How much is this ring?”

“Ah, that’s a beautiful piece,” the salesman replies.

“It goes for $10,000.”

“My God!” the man exclaimed.

“That’s a lot of money!”

“Yes, but a diamond is forever.”

“Perhaps,” the gentleman replied, “but my marriage won’t last that long!”
