[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it depends on what you mean by high earner, if you live in a 12,000sqft house with a pool and staff then yes it’s tacky. If you’re making under 400k a year it’s not tacky. [/quote] OP here. We make close to $350k/yr. Most of our family members and friends make under $100k. [/quote] This doesn't change my mind. Have a shower with items up to $50, and most at or below $25. Your close friends and family want to celebrate you and it's almost condescending to think about their incomes and assume they can't figure out what they can spend on you. Many people ignore the registry anyway and get an outfit and those kinds of things can easily just be $10-15. I know you are being thoughtful but it's better to just be a normal friend in this situation. It's not like you are having a destination wedding in Hawaii! It's a baby shower.[/quote]
