What do ridiculously rich people (like Bill Gates etc.) ask for/get for Christmas/birthdays/etc.?
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?
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?
