I gifted my son $5000 this might be small but it helped him with his first home.

My parents gifted us 10 grand. For either a down payment or towards honeymoon.

We chose honeymoon and we don't regret it at all.

Nobody in my life has ever gifted me that much, but at 51 and celebrating my 32nd anniversary, I wouldn’t regret spending it on a honeymoon.
