If most people around you get married, there's no profit. It's, roughly, a zero sum game. Everyone gifts everyone money.

No really, if a lot of them (gift givers) are older family members (already married). In that case, you will pay back much later when you are that older family, so, at best, it's like a long-term loan when you needed most.
