If it's a gift like that and it fails, you should consider it charity. Probably charity to someone less well off.

Though it still sucks, and hopefully whomever got that charity can grow from it and eventually 'pay it forward'.

Which should make the change from Reddit even worse :(

Yeah, I did a few (several years ago) and got "stiffed" once.

I always just looked at it as a gift - something given freely and willingly without any demand for anything in return.

Sure, I was bummed because I love seeing what people send me, but I didn't get bent out of shape over it. I signed up because at the time I was financially stable and wanted to do something nice and fun for someone. Mission success.
