6 pointsDonmario6y ago7 comments

I saw a couple of Twitter posts about holiday presents that can give 100x value for your close ones. They mentioned a Raspberry Pi 4, Adobe Creative Cloud access etc.

An instrument: A guitar or a piano. Even if somebody is not trained, an instrument can inspire. A good guitar can last decades.
