Gifts for the person who has everything — from the person who has a list

The 2026 gift guide for fortunes that round to the nearest billion.

By Hesbon Osoro··2 min read

Gift guides for the very wealthy are usually about giving to the very wealthy: a rarer watch, an older whisky, a heavier pen. This one turns it around. You are the person who has everything. Here is a list from someone who has a list.

For the driver in you

A BMW M4 Competition xDrive in Isle of Man Green — the daily driver that embarrasses a track day — or the Mercedes-Maybach S 680, for being driven rather than driving. Both arrive with an exact spec, so your dealer can order without a single question.

For the sensible billionaire

The Volvo XC90 T8 and the Peugeot 3008 GT prove generosity doesn't have to be loud. Seven seats of Scandinavian calm, or a cockpit that looks like a French spaceship.

For the one who likes things that compound

A piece of land near Nairobi, a house in Karen, a boutique hotel on the Kenyan coast, or business shares — gifts that keep appreciating long after the ribbon comes off.

For the engineer's engineer

The coding setup is the only wish on this list that pays itself forward: every hour at that desk becomes software for someone. Herman Miller, dual 6K, and a UPS because the grid has opinions.

And the gift that isn't a joke

Mary and Lydia, a mother and daughter living with disability, welcome anyone to their aid through Able Hearts. Any amount helps with medical care, mobility aids and housing repairs. It is the least delusional line in this entire guide.
