Because everyone you know can buy their own stuff leaving nothing affordable for you to get.

Why does passing out cash "ruin the point of the holiday"
Because some people dont get that the point of the holiday once youve reached adulthood is to spend time with loved ones, and give gifts to the children. If your going to give money, then just do away with the whole idea. saving them the money from buying you a gift is the same as giving them money afterall.
I hate trying to decide on gifts for adults. I told my family last year that we are done doing presents for birthdays and mothers/fathers day and just worrying about Christmas, and to pool the money together and buy like 1 expensive gift. Last year I got a new , presumebly expensive, office chair and it was a wonderful gift. My brother and I are pooling money together to get my Dad a sweet new driver.
Im genuinely excited to give these gifts, because they are things that i know they would love, but are expensive enough that they didnt just go out and buy them on their own.
