Times are tough, folks. If our landlord suddenly decided to raise our rent or our student loans become unrelentingly high, we can only hope that our family and friends would swoop in to save the day; kind of like when we were children.

Watch This Kid’s Priceless Reaction to His Christmas Present
The holiday season is usually a momentous time for laughs, cheers and smiles, but this kid's reaction, while still happy, was a little different.
