Jared's daughter is turning two years old and his wife wants him to plan a birthday party. Jared is already sick of all of the toys his daughter never plays with, so he came up with a plan. He asked guests not to buy her toys for her birthday. Instead, he thinks they should contribute cash to a fund for him to build a patio in the backyard. He says she won't remember anything about the party, but the whole family will be able to enjoy the patio for years. Is this selfish on his part or a smart idea?
