  • So I’ve been on both sides of this equation. I had a rich friend growing up and they would give me random gifts like game consoles and tickets to concerts that we’d go with them. It was “pocket change” to them. As I got older, I came in to money young and started to do the same thing with my friends, and I realized why they did it and why I did it.

    It’s nothing about power dynamics or holding it over others, but wanting to share in your joys and successes. I would buy dinner for friends at nice places because I wanted to enjoy something and I wanted them to also. They were my friends, I have money, why wouldn’t I want to share it? I hate when people are selfish and hoard money, so why not use it for everyone to enjoy.

    Man people in here being pedantic. It’s like he said “PlayStation” and people saying “well that’s actually a PS3, not a PS1”. Xbox is generic enough it can mean the OG, 360, One, Series S/X.

    Edit: looks like the original title was more specific but the OP since edited it to be more generic.
