Obviously, this kind of spending can be problematic in more than one way. After all, how can we possibly teach our children that there’s more to life than “stuff” when they’re constantly bombarded with ads? And how can we ever expect them to learn to be happy with what they have when there is always something bigger and better to ask for?
“Most people know how or can easily learn how to create a budget and avoid overspending, but it will come down to their conviction when they are tested,” he says.For example, maybe you are trying to declutter and cut down on stuff you don’t frequently use around the house. Or maybe you’re worried about the environment and want to make sure your holiday gifts won’t add to the local landfill.
The options are endless when it comes to experience gifts your loved ones might actually like. Plus, the joy these gifts bring can far outweigh the temporary happiness they get from a toy that will eventually get donated to Goodwill, right?Hoang says that giving financial gifts can also make sense, and that’s especially true for young children who don’t really “need” anything in the first place but could easily need help later in life.
