Having my birthday just 5 days after christmas eve has had its benefits and not-benefits (aka disadvantages).
The bad:
I suspected that having spent all their money on christmas, my donators would have less (insufficient) spendable money.
Nobody sang a happy birnthday tune for me at school.
The good:
Unlike all my friends/relatives who regretted that things were over after christmas eve, with another 365 days to go be fore christmas again, I could look forward to another session of presents just 5 days after. (That the others could look forward to the same in >5 but <365 days, while I after the 29th had to wait for 360 days before more presents were due, apparently didn't cross my mind).
