In the Peanuts Classic comic strip for Sept. 15, 2008, Lucy clearly has the right idea.

It's her birthday, and she's on a rant about the gifts she received.

In the first frame, she says, "Nobody gave me what I wanted for my birthday. NOBODY!"

In the second frame, she says, "What sort of presents do you call these? New shoes, a green sweater, and a bunch of stupid toys."

In the third frame, Linus asks, "What were you expecting?"

And in the fourth frame, Lucy's wisdom shines through when she answers, "Real estate!"
