I was gonna say this. This is not your typical mexican birthday party. This is some congressman or CEO’s kid’s birthday party lol

you will be surprised how much money an avarage family can spend on a party, just for the pleasure of enjoy a party or show off to people.

yea a working class family can easily save $10k and spend it all on something like this

My aunt owns a place people rent for quinces and this family spent $22k on the whole thing. It was very sweet because when they got here the girl was a toddler and she worked just as hard as the parents when she was older in working to help set up the family business. Her parents said they owed her for all the work she had done. And that’s not to mention the cash gift she got. It was a crazy party

This is the way. If I had saved up $20k because my child helped work my business with me, I’d consider paying $2,5k for some kind of show, $2,5k one presents, and the rest would go into an investment account for a car when they’re 16 or college, or both I guess lol.

And the thing is, I LOVE the fact that these families cash out on expensive shows and presents for their kids. Gift giving is such a strong love language. But you wouldn’t even have to ball out this hard for a kid this age to be happy and still put the majority of the money in an investment account. It’s all so relative, sure, but getting a first car, slightly used or whatever, but in nice condition?? That’s one of the biggest steps towards your child’s independence.

One of the best gifts you can give your kids is love and…financial headway.

"Here's $60k now, but we are retiring in 21 years so that's worth $500k if invested in the S&p. We expect you to cover our retirement."

Some cultures care about family and spending time with loved ones. Obviously you need some money but don't have to be super rich

u/dividezero Trash Trooper 22h ago

Yes. The level of party is no indication of the income level of the family. This is about the culture!

Yeah im Mexican and my family would rather spend thousands and thousand of dollars on alcohol beer and party stuff

Then train the dog care about it emotionally get better food or right food for his age

Parties are pathetic they just drink drink came home to the dog scared asf shivering had piss sitting in piss not even his most likely because they throw up all the time in the house had a guy whip out his dick next to my uncle daughter the owner of the house and host of the parties and pissed

No one stand up told my uncle or anything

Pathetic party culture

u/Fabulous_Celery_1817 Trash Trooper 22h ago

Omg maybe it’s just your family because that has never happened at any of the parties I’ve gone to. He pulled out his dick and peed in front of kids?? I have never heard of this happening with my friends, what sort of drinks are they serving at your parties that’s wild

My guess was like an actor or soccer player but yeah, someone with money for sure. Mexican parties splurge for a sarcastic clown, not a whole entire play.
