Extravagant Birthdays! email this discussion to a friend?

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes daughter just had a birthday. They shelled out over $100000.00 for their little girls birthday. Now the questions are:
1. Would you ever have a birthday like that if you had the money of course?
2. What are your thoughts on a birthday party for a little girl or boy (that probably won't even remember it)?
3. Have you ever gone to a birthday that was a little too much?
4. If you have what kinds of things/food etc was at this party?

I think that is money wasted for any birthday, I don't even think bill gates should spend that kind of money on his birthday. Your right the little girl is much to young to know what is going on. I lived in the ghetto all my life, most of the kids never even had a birthday party. My son always had one, and it was costing me 40.00 the max.

She wont have had a clue whats going on really she certainly wont remember it will she. It seems like a real waste of money to me im sure theres plenty of decent things that money could have been spent on as she got older, but I suppose when money isnt an issue you dont think about it.


myLot reputation of 79/100. nicholejade (874)   ranked 1,469 out of 2,512 in news  4 months ago

Yes that is very true. I wonder what Tom and Katie are going to do in the years to come and as she gets older and is more aware of what is going on.

I think that this is a little too much for a kids party. It is the same as these sweet 16 parties that I am seeing on television that the kids get rock stars and stuff at their parties and the parents are spending a fortune on a party. It just shows that parents are the ones who are causing the children to act the way they do and be spoiled and think that they don't have to work to get things in life. It is insane!!
I believe a small party is more appropriate and cake and ice cream is fine for the food to be served.


myLot reputation of 79/100. nicholejade (874)   ranked 1,469 out of 2,512 in news  4 months ago

Yes I have watched some of the Sweet 16 Birthdays on TV. And I do have to tell you that some are them are pretty crazy. With the money that (these normal nobodys sort of speak) are spending on their daughters birthday. I seen one that this girl was so spoiled and demanded and whined to her mom left right and center. I would honestly of been ashamed to see myself act like that for the world to see. I hate people like that.

I think that is ridiculous, even though they are millionaires, there is no need to spend that much money. All kids need on their birthday is love and close friends and family around to spend it with them. Some kids you can spend so much on them and they get overwhelmed by it all. I have never been to any birthdays that I thought was a little too much. Most kids parties I have been too are just at McDonalds or celebrated at their house. I like to have my kids parties at the park near the beach, cheap, and good fun for the kids to run around and play.


myLot reputation of 79/100. nicholejade (874)   ranked 1,469 out of 2,512 in news  4 months ago

I totally agree with you. I have been too a few extravagant parties and it was crazy and insane. I just sat back and said "are they really even aware of what is going on?"

If I have money that much, I'd put it in the bank
or invest it.
I must admit its quite extravagant on their part to spend that amount on their little girl's birthday. But who are we to pass judgement?

Lest we forget, it's their hard earned money they're spending...not yours or mine.
They have every right to do whatever they please with their money.


myLot reputation of 79/100. nicholejade (874)   ranked 1,469 out of 2,512 in news  4 months ago

Their hard earned money. I don't think they had to work very hard for that. Yes I agree they can do what they want with it.

Most birthdays for 1 and 2 year olds isn't for the kids. It's for the parents. Tom Cruise is just showing off again for all his friends. I can't imagine any party costing that much unless it was for charity and a huge guest list.

I think that is the problem. Need to show off what they got. Thanks for your response.
