Birthday Gift

Sup Guys,

Sadly, I will be 21 in a week. I from Quebec, so 21 is not as a big deal as for you guys in the USA, and I have been drinking since like 16 lol.

Anyways, my parents asked what I wanted for my birthday and I have absolutely no idea. I was hoping to get some cool ideas. My parents do not spoil me like some rich kid, but I am in no need. I always thought of birthday gifts as something that I would always remember, not necessarily like Christmas where it is more of an exchange of goods (plus the birthday of Jesus lol ).

I already have an nice watch (Tag, paid myself), my car (my money) and a laptop. My phone isn't due for a change.

Any cool ideas? I thought of Sky Jumping but my parents did not sound too excited haha!

Thanks!

How about a pair of nice sunglasses? You can get pretty much whatever you want in that price range.

Tell them to start you a retirement fund, terribly boring but you'll impress them with you maturity.

Exactly. Earning a bit of trust goes a long way.
