Great Birthday Gifts for Under 10,000
Some say the hardest part of a relationship is getting to know, really getting to know, another person. Others say it’s learning how to compromise, to meet your friend (lover, spouse, child, house cleaner) half way. Of course these people don’t know what you and I know, they haven’t dealt with the types of things you and I deal with. We, with our experience, know that the hardest part of a relationship is figuring out what kind of gift to get the special someone.
First step is prudence. You need a limit; if you buy them a personal jet for their 40th god knows you’ll have to get them something grander for their fiftieth. And what’s grander than a personal jet? (Answer: nothing.) So let’s say under 10,000 dollars is a good, reasonable, limit.
Second step- what do they like? What are their passions? Do they like ponies (are they turning six?). These are hard questions to answer. Sometimes a gift card is the easiest, but that can seem impersonal. My recommendation: donate a vast sum in their name to some humanitarian project, http://www.heifer.org/. Bam- they feel good about themselves, the starving masses feel good, and you look good. Everyone wins.
