As expected, the long awaited golden child of Brangelina is already receiving tons of gifts.
For example, Itsmybinky.com has made a one-of-a-kind 14K gold and diamond studded pacifier worth $17,000 to give to Shiloh. The binky is made of European white gold and 3 carats of white diamonds.
That’s a lot of bling for a newborn.
TMZ.com gave this story an interesting spin by contacting CARE to see how much the cost of this one item ($17,000) would provide to an African community in need. Among other things, 283 girls could go to school for one year, 61,000 people could eat for a day or 400 families could eat for a month.
Now, the Jolie-Pitts have already proven their generosity and made several donations to help African communities, and I’m not suggesting they give all their celebrity swag and baby gifts away.
But, I do think it’s a good thing when the monetary value of an item can be put into perspective.
