He is bitter at the thought of having to spend his money on the woman he wants to spend his life with... sounds like a great start to me. Clearly, the only "good" investments to him include monetary returns -- which is good since he loves to talk about how much he's paying for a home and to live in a very nice area... basically bragging about how much he makes.

That's exactly what I read into his comments too, and added chauvinistic domineering male who automatically ranks his (future) wife as his subordinate. How much crapwork are most wives expected to do in a marriage? A lot. Yet, none of this wife-work with which he is about to burden her is worth the price of a nice diamond engagement ring? This guy thinks he's already doing the woman enough of a favor by just marrying her. If he had to pay someone by the hour to do every bit of the wife-work, I wonder how much he'd be griping then. He's a short-term thinker, for certain. --- "buh-Bye, Cruel Pricescope!"
