[quote=Anonymous]OP, I understand that you want to show your siblings you appreciate them. But giving people who have money 10K will just be a blimp on the radar. (Our brokerage and 401K accounts can easily go up and down well over 10K in a day.) Give them something that they will remember, that will create a memory. A trip, though that involves a lot of logistics and we see on DCUM how many SILs get up in arms over being forced to do IL trips. A group family portrait + a family portrait for each individual family? A special meal at a well-known, high end restaurant? A spa day for the women and men, with some small gift for each on arrival, and the 5K for the 529? Whatever you do, create a memory of thanks. 10K will not do that. It will probably make them uncomfortable. Giving money isn't really a form of thanks unless the people need the money.[/quote]
