How Russians Celebrate Birthdays

I've seen US movies and know how Americans do they celebrate birthdays. Russian birthdays are very different. The birthday person must organize their own birthday. You can get fun and, be happy, and get from presents when you are young.  But when you are adult, you must be responsible on your birthday. is responsible day when You must to invite your friends and serve them round. If somebody wants to celebrate at on the same day, but often it's impossible, and you would have to organize it at the weekend.
From the morning You start are preparing dinner in the early morning. It must be salads, hot dishes (meat or fish with potato or another vegetable), fruits and at the end you must have a cake and sweets with tea.
The most popular present now is money now. People become rich and have much a lot of stuff. So you don't know what to give them as a present. They already have what they want. If you buy something, they might not like it it could not suit for birthday person.
When all the guests come, all everyone sits down at the table. Russians like toasts. I don't mean toast as in bread. I mean speeches. When you are not a public person or a leader, your toast is short. Somepeople body likes to give long toasts, but others don't like it. If you have children at the table, they don't like to eat for a long time. Usually they go for a game to another room to play games.
Somepeople body think that Russians drink a lot, this is not true. The English or and the French drink more than the Russians.
