You pick out an amazing, expensive little keychain that comes with 32 features including its own panic button and tell yourself its the perfect gift. Of course, its not. The man who has everything has probably seen the super keychain before and decided not to buy it since he would never use it in a million years.
Its never easy finding gifts for the man who has everything, since the man who has everything has, well, everything. You know the type, professional job, nice car, good family, a few hobbies; probably an all-around good fellow, but not very easy to buy gifts for.
The biggest problem is that if he really wants something hell probably just go out and buy it himself. Therefore, anything he really wants he probably already has, and just about everything that he doesnt have he probably doesnt want very badly. This puts you, the gift-giver, in a pretty sticky situation.
Well, I have to get him something, you rationalize. You walk into a store, maybe even The Sharper Image where they seem to have all sorts of gifts for the man who has everything; personalized golf tees, fighting robots, glow in the dark keyboards.
Of course, he doesnt tell you this when you give him the gift. Hes gracious and thanks you profusely before shoving the keychain into a drawer and hoping that you dont mention that he never uses it.
So what are you supposed to do? Well, since the man who has everything hasnt had a chance to buy anything he hasnt seen yet, try to find something that is along his tastes, but is particularly difficult to find.
For example, if youre on a trip to a wine region, and you know that he likes Chardonnay, pick up a few bottles from a small winery that he probably hasnt heard of before.
If hes a football fan, pick up a piece of vintage memorabilia on Ebay that he wouldnt be able to find otherwise. Dont take the easy route of just grabbing some useless gift in the store that is labeled for the man who has everything, since its usually something neither you nor he would want.
If you put some thought into the gift, its likely that hell appreciate it more, even if its less expensive that the super keychain or monogrammed golf tees. Pay attention to what he likes and what he cant find, and your gift for the man who has everything is sure to be a hit.
