Guest Christ Croteau from Rare & Forever Diamonds shares what he knows about NFTs and Blockchains as they relate to the diamond world, and how they might be part of what people get when they buy diamonds in the not-so-distant future.  

I sit down with Chris Croteau from Rare and Forever Diamonds to talk about diamond grading reports generated by artificial intelligence (AI). Are they more accurate? Is this the wave of the future? Should I have sipped on more tequila beforehand?

Sometimes guys kill the mood without even knowing it.  It's as true when you're in the wild, as it is when you're looking for engagement rings.   I'll tell you what kills her excitement buzz, and what to do about it, so you can be the bad *ss hero she's come to love.

When you’re looking for a diamond engagement ring or other important jewelry there are so many words and descriptions and certifications that are meant to replace what really matters when you buy an engagement ring: I’m talking about seeing it, live and in person.

I was inspired to talk about this yet again when I stumbled on a reference to the power of words while reading, "The Instant Millionaire."  It reminded me of how words are used by all sorts of people and (mostly) online marketers to seduce you into buying their wares without actually seeing what you're getting.  Many times it won't turn out how you hope.  (And that really sucks.)
