I know money can’t buy happiness blahblahblah.
Do they do gift exchanges at all?
Do they ask for anything?
They have enough money that they could get anything made or done for them at a moment’s notice. Like having ChatGPT, but for services. Ridiculous things we couldn’t imagine.
Anyone have any insight into general trends along those lines?
I’m hardly Bill Gates but can buy myself most anything I want.
Quality time with loved ones is the best birthday present.
Is it more like you decide what to do, and you ask loved ones to take the day off?
Or you ask them to plan something to do together?
(Not meaning to pry or anything, I’m just curious how the motivation works)
And if you’d like to share, what was your most memorable birthday present/experience?
I don’t mean to offend, but are you asking how to spend quality time with your loved ones?
Either of those options works, imo. Or you don’t need to plan anything at all, just “meeting up for coffee” is nice.
Doesn’t take extreme wealth for that. I make enough that I can buy whatever I want. The best Christmas gifts are things I wouldn’t think of needing or wanting.
For birthday, it’s usually just a dinner without gifts.
I think that some people, regardless of wealth/income don’t really want “items” to unwrap. That makes sense.
I was imagining that, for Bill Gates (etc.), they could literally just hop on a private jet and fly anywhere in the world to eat at any restaurant they want prepared by a world-class chef. So even certain experiences would be hard to match at home.
Is it usually a home-cooked dinner or a restaurant for you?
Baby blood for their Satanic rituals.
Or just some time to spend with their family since they are probably too busy most of the time.
Never buy baby blood and say it’s for a Satanic ritual, they double the price, it’s like booking a venue for a wedding.
Bill Gates, in an interview asking about gift ideas, said “books” so i’m assuming they want regular shit like anyone else
No insights, but all the money and resources in the world couldn’t replicate a homemade customized gift of some kind. Probably end up with a lot of knitted scarves and hats lol.
