40-year-old wealthy woman forces siblings to cough up $3,000 each to pay for their parents' 40th wedding anniversary gift: 'She said I was being cheap and unappreciative of [our] parents'

Good gifts should never be defined by their price tags. Whatever happened to thoughtful presents that are uniquely suited to the person you're celebrating? Unfortunately, too many people seem to feel that the more expensive a gift is, the more thoughtful people will think you are. 

Personally speaking, if my sister and I were to purchase a cruise ship vacation for our parents' anniversary, they simply would not go no matter how expensive it was. Let's just say cruises aren't for them. Still, it just goes to show that a $20 book about a subject that is near and dear to your parents' hearts might mean so much more to them precisely because of the personal connection rather than the monetary value. 

This author's older sister clearly feels differently about what makes a good gift. She had the audacity to assume her two younger siblings, both of whom make far less than she does, would be willing to pitch in $3,000 each for a cruise ship vacation for their parents.
