Kim Kardashian revealed her gigantic, 20.5 carat engagement ring on Wednesday, which is said to be worth well over $2 million dollars-- half the value of her mansion!  So just how much money does it take to insure such a valuable piece of property?

RadarOnline.com spoke to Patricia K. Low, President and CEO of jewelry insurance company Jewelers UnBLOCKed who gave us a staggering quote!

"With over 20.5 carats of diamonds and set in platinum, the approximate cost to insure the ring could be upwards of $30,000 per year,” revealed the expert.

Just to put it in perspective, according to a survey done by TheKnot.com and WeddingChannel.com the average cost of an engagement ring in 2010 was $5,292 -- so that means Kim’s yearly insurance on her Lorraine Schwartz bling is six times the cost of the average ring!

After the divorce, she can sell that huge rock. The money will come in handy for buying her slutty looking outfits, pounds of thick clown makeup and trips to the tanning salon.

And then..........she'll move on to the next football player.

This is absurd. It absolutely sickens me to the core!! There is so much poverty in this country and in this world and she's going to walk around with over $2 million dollars on her finger, just for show?? She should be ashamed.
