Well then, prepare yourself to spoil this little person. You may not know this, but that's what grandparents are expected to do. I know this because I have a lot of experience being a grandfather and a great-grandfather.

My oldest grandchild was born in 1990 when I was 46 years old. My third great-grandchild was born a little over a year ago. I have four grandkids and three great-grandkids. Much to some Getbig member's chagrin I might live long enough for yet another generation. My oldest great-grandchild will be six years old later this year.

Hey, I have an idea: Lets make this thread about you.

STFU!

No, you are supposed to live off your kids, grand kids, great grand kids, your pets, getbiggers, etc

Well, when one of them strikes it rich, I'll suggest this to my kids and grandkids. Despite what they claim, most Getbiggers cannot afford to support me in the manner to which I am accustomed. My pet dog, Lucy doesn't know any tricks and if I asked her to sit or roll over she'd probably just roll her eyes and bark something akin to telling me to "fuck off."

Congrats.  Welcome to the world of grand parenting!  All the fun of children, but no diapers to change.   

Best thing to do now is get a credit card and add his name to it.  For the next 18 years, use it for small things and pay them off.  When he turns 18 he's got a 800 credit score to start life off with.

Is this a real thing? You can add minors to a credit card and build a history for them?

Seems legit enough. Problem is that this score of 800 can disappear in a month or two with their careless credit habits. It may not be much of a long term gift.....but then, that wouldn't be your fault.
