If you were rich, would you buy designer bags (Chanel, Gucci, etc) for your 16-year-old daughter?

Like a $12,000 Chanel bag. I'm talking about if you make $200,000+ a year. I would definitely buy designers for her, bc I work hard to give my child a better life than I had growing up. Wbu?

She likes my stuff and wants… but she was trained she has to earn them…
she has a few nice things, but she worked hard in school to get them.
there main focus now is education and forming a well self respected adult so they can contribute to the society. They know that very well.
both kids don’t really ask for much… just their basic needs and working hard to become successful… they know everything will belong to them… but they don’t have an ounce of greed… they want to do it themselves.

I would make her earn it. That does not necessarily mean I expect her to outright buy the bags since many adults cannot even do so. However, I would make her find ways to earn the bag then I would buy it for her. For example, if she had a job I would tell her to start saving for it. However, once she got into good financial habits, I would buy it for her and let her keep the savings. If she did not have the job, I would find another way to make her see the value of hard work. I would never raise a child to expect that they will always get what they want in life just because they asked for or wanted it.

It is extremely tough question. See, if you working hard, of course you want to spoil your children, I mean who wouldn't. But at the same time, doing so will turn them into monsters, because spoiling won't stop with the bag. Finding a perfect balance is very Very tough, but if you won't be able to find it, it will ruin both your life and your kids.

I love my daughter with all my heart.

That being said, I'm never, ever buying her a bag worth that much money. I'm not even spending $100s on a bag/purse. I'm putting that money towards something useful like an education. If I have that kind of money to throw around, hell, I'll pay for another kids education too while I'm at it. I'll go sponsor a whole class of kids to get a college education and make something of their lives rather than drop that kind of money on a single designer.

Hard to say. I don't come from anything rich at all and I'm not really into designer things just because they are expensive or because of the tag they come from.

So it's hard to imagine being in a completely different world with my current values in life.

[bones_20]

Lol. No I wouldn’t. I spent a couple hundred dollars on a bag once and then got a couple scratches on it. Such a waste of money, would never spend thousands. If you want to give her a better life, buy her a bunch of puppies. Much more useful and better. 😌

If I was rich, I would only buy my kids high end, nice shit after setting the precedent that they need to work hard for it.


I feel that when people grow up with a silver spoon in their mouths and never face adversity or difficult times they can never relate to the common man. I think being able to relate to everybody on all social scales is important

[Dinklex3]

$12,000 chanelbag?
When I'm only making around $200k?
Hell no.
If I'm going to spend $12k on her, I can take her and her closest friend on a trip.
Hotel, shopping, spa.
But one bag? Hell no.

[Ms_Vanderquack]

If I were rich I still wouldn't have any kids. And I still wouldn't waste money on over priced bullshit.

[Agape93]

Hell no. I don't care if I had the combined wealth of bezos and musk, I'm not shelling out thousands for a bag.

[IAMNathanael]

I wouldn't. I don't think that item coming from a designer adds any extra value to it. For me or my kids there's better places to put my money.

[Astarlessnightsky]

Nope, i don't even know if my daughter would even use that kind of bags. And that would be an unnesesarry waste of money.

[Aerissa_Jade]

I would not, as easy come, easy go. Things have more value if you earn them yourself.

[Noddy619]

No. They need to learn the value of money. Designers are often a ripoff anyway

[chriscdi]

I wouldn't even buy it for myself, I'd dress the same way I always do

[LegendaryIcon]

just remember, there are starving children in africa... in the mean time, you're buying her a purse she'll probably lose pretty quickly

[doopayo]

If I was rich I would ave a kid

[In_Trance]

You think designer bags equate to a better life?

[Asker]

Of course designers bags don't equal a good life, lots of factors are involved -- house, food, clothes, etc. But I would want her to have clothes that I couldn't have when I was younger.

[joeldalton]

No. Fuck that. It'd be lost or stolen.

[Cutiebhadie]

I would only buy them if she like them

[Starla1234]

Lol no
