All things are relative.

    If you look at it from the perspective of an investment... well
    remember that someone has to like it at least as much as you because
    you need to find a willing buyer in order to realize profit. 

    If you view it from a personal satisfaction angle, hey whatever
    floats your boat. Enjoy it for a lifetime. 

    Which is the motivator here, the stone or the setting? Would you like
    the stone as much if it were in a $100 setting? Would you like the
    setting as much if it held a different stone? Or is it THAT stone in
    THAT setting?
