[quote=Anonymous]Lots of Big Law folks here. Lots of money in Big Law. I'm from an "old money" fiscally conservative family, so my question if more about culture than resources. I have several friends (3) in Big Law who are quite showy, always buying gifts for me and my kids (and everyone else in their circle). Celebrations with them are always over the top. At times it makes me uncomfortable. I'm positive it makes some friends in our larger social circle uncomfortable. It might come from a place of insecurity, I don't really know. These are very kind, smart folks, and I enjoy their company, but not necessarily this particular aspect of our friendship. Should I just ignore it? Give a subtle hint (if so, how)? If it is coming from a place of insecurity, I don't want to make that feeling worse. For now, I do ignore it.[/quote]
