If I HAD extra money every month would pay $XX month for college instead but I can't afford that for any child my nieces and nephews have. I can however I can spend one time $XX for first child for all my nieces and nephews. If I save from the time they find out. That's like $XX/month over time. I don't plan to spend $XX per kid but $XX per family and something smaller for subsequent children because usually there's only one baby shower. My problem is I want to keep buying and that would be unfair to my other nieces and nephews if/when they have kids. I feel they got gypped and will not get gifts from many.
Thats how it always goes- the first kids to be born of a new generation get all the attention and presents.
