Do you have a "get money" list for those you'd gift if you came into big money?

Do you have a “get money” list? If you should come into a windfall of cash and wanted to share the love do you have a list of who would get what so you don’t end up gifting too much money to the wrong person or having to gift money to someone you had not expected? For instance if you gifted you barber or hair stylist $1,500 because they always got you in and did your hair exactly the way you like, and word got to a cousin that you hardly see but they are family would you not have to match the $1,500 or ore to them in order not to look hinky? Of if you gave your mother in-law $3,000 but she was now divorced from the father in-Law and even though you were not as close to him as her he had a greater need, would you feel you would have to give him at least $3,000 or more because of his greater need? And if you gave to a niece but her daughter you gave nothing you might seem cold or stingy to the great niece? If you had a list of who gets what then you won’t have to figure it on the fly and end up missing someone you shouldn’t or paying too much for someone that maybe should not get as much.
