[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with a PP who said its a showy overindulgent act that is inappropriate. If the BIL wanted to do this, instead of a grand announcement at a gathering of everyone, he should have made a couple phones calls and asked if anyone would be up for a trip to Hawaii and that he wanted to treat. Then a discussion would have been has where the husband could have negotiated "ok you pay hotel, I get airfare." This BIL's assumption that no one could afford or wanted to afford this is bizarre. Your husband probably doesn't want to hear everyone thanking this guy up and down every day and have him yelling "shots on me" across a bar as he makes it rain. I'm totally with your husband on this. I can pay for my own family, thank you very much.[/quote] But when you give someone a gift are you saying that person can't afford the gift on his own?[/quote]
