Not really, designer labels are not an investment and have no real resale value.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

Totally irrelevant, the thief is completely in the wrong, whoever she stole from. The fact that she robbed a 5 year old defenceless child is just despicable
I'm not saying the thief was somehow in the right, I was wondering what the hell a 5 year old is doing with a gold chain in the first place. Seems stupid beyond reason if you ask me.
Anyway, was just talking to my wife however and she told me a lot of rural people will buy gold and "bling" their kids out to show off their wealth and how much they "care" and are good parents. Still sound stupid after hearing her explanation.
in england, parents put money into a bank account set up for the child, in Cambodia they buy them Gold, the same reason all Cambodians (girls especially) kit themselves out in Gold, plus is their kid is kitted out in Gold it gives them face
I would think it as being more equatable to British parents that dress their kids in designer lables.
british parents who dress their kids in designer labels are fucking idiots, the gear doesnt cost much cheaper than an adults version but the kid will grow out of it after 6 months then they will be trying to flog them on some facebook buy/sell page for a fraction of what they paid 6 months ago
the gold can be swapped/part exchanged at the jewellers as the kids grow older

Re: Woman arrested for stealing chain from 5 year old.
Of course, I get what you and jb are saying, but to me they both look like they have had $100 bills stuck all over them. And that's what their parents/ grandparents want people to think. An extremely dangerous practice when, as you both point out, the gold can be cashed-in in almost an instant.Jamie_Lambo wrote: ↑Mon Jun 12, 2017 10:32 pmnaa its invested money, as JB also mentionedjuansweetpotato wrote: ↑Mon Jun 12, 2017 1:16 pmJamie_Lambo wrote: ↑Mon Jun 12, 2017 12:36 pmAE86 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 11, 2017 10:32 pmjaynewcastle wrote: ↑Sun Jun 11, 2017 10:27 pm

How many threads have there been on here over the last few years where kids have been murdered for the jewellery their parents have put on them?
