Money can Buy You Love - At Men’s Ring Store

We’ve heard a lot about how many can’t buy y0ou love and we’ve come to believe that haven’t we? I mean if you hear it enough and it sounds reasonable we just sit back and say, "Yeah. That’s right, money can’t buy you love." Not to be negative or to burst anyone’s little bubble, but at men ring store. we’d like to challenge this old saying and postulate that if you spend your money wisely - you can invest your money in love by buying something that has been associated with love and nuptials, togetherness and loyalty since time began. In the Miracle on 34th Street, the theory of Santa Claus was replaced with the knowledge that he exists just by his receiving thousands of letters. We believe that when spending money for something that is associated with love, that means love, that symbolizes the higher degree of love known to man - that of holy marriage by an ordained minister, that love has indeed been purchased. At least symbolically …

We’re not saying that you have to buy from our online site or even online for that matter – go ahead and waste your money in high priced retail stores – that is your business. You don’t even have to buy a triton tungsten ring or one of our ceramic rings for that matter. It doesn’t even have to be a men’s ring! It can be a ladies’! So, you see, we are being very open minding in our theorizing. We’ll even go so far as to say that even your old, dull, gold, dingy wedding ring from ages ago was an investment in this elusive thing we call love.

There is a story, Indian lore if you will, that bears out this idea of purchasing love in a wedding band. The leader of the Ute tribe in what is now Utah in the western United States was introduced to his future wife by the famous medicine man, Running-with-Wisdom. When one says introduced, one must realize that this was a planned event, one in which not even the tribal leader could refuse. It was simply accepted as the law of the gods, sanctioned and initiated in a world far superior and higher than the worldly sphere we call mortality.

In meeting his future wife he soon realized that she did not have her heart set upon himself, it had been given to another Indian, a brave whose cunning and courage had been tested many times on the battle field. But this brave, Shantana, was far too loyal to tradition to even consider accepting something other than what the medicine man had sanctioned. Symbolically when two Indians are united in marriage a toe ring is used as was the case with the Ute tribe. The wise Ute leader, knowing this tradition, designed a plan that would bind those who knew love together while not breaking with accepted tradition. He asked Shantana if his father had already given him the traditional toe ring that would be used for his marriage and the answer was yes. He asked Shantana for it and was not refused by this brave, for one never refused or disobeyed one’s leader – particularly the leader of the tribe!

This ring was then presented to Taima (meaning thunder), the one who was supposed to be the tribal leader’s wife and she accepted it without question not realizing it was actually one owned by Shantana, her true love. The tribal leader then approached Running-with-Wisdom and told him that Shantana’s toe ring – a symbol of love and loyalty through marriage – had been given to Taima and that she had accepted it in thanksgiving. Humbly, he then asked the wise medicine man if he would allow Shantana and Taima to marry. He waited for what seemed like hours for this great and wise medicine man to answer. But the answer was worth waiting for – he said after much consideration, that it was to be that their bond had been sanctioned and accepted by the gods and that they must not interfere!

Two people in love, a wise medicine man and a very understanding and unselfish tribal leader … and one ring that had again bought love.
