Nooooeeeh!
I refuse! #818448
Profitable gift-giving only. It's an entrepreneurial decision
It's settled: Christmas gift giving is one big, inefficient loss-maker.
Yes, cash is better than most alternatives. But just because most alternatives suck does not mean cash is good!
Its a fiat world, if you want a real value for value world you have to work for it! You have to work for your social connections! Cash is too cheap to achieve that!
I dont remember your sat gifts. I remember most of the other gifts you gave me! They build a connection.
I would definitely take sats for Christmas! But visiting your family over the holidays just to come back with a big bag of sats is definitely not as fulfilling as having sats AND some nice, thoughtful gifts!
It shows that they cared about you and your interests! Last year my girlfriend got me a gift I hadnt thought of at all! She gave me this magnetic stirrer #820679!
It was so cool that I still use it and remember it! Also I gifted her a flight to travel together to her beloved Edinburgh! for her much better than some cash.
