Your reading what I’ve said but you either don’t understand it or you can’t understand it.
I don’t need to keep buying her things, but If you stop buying your partner gifts because they no longer need them or you feel you’ve done enough your relationship is on a very steep downward slope.
I enjoy giving far more than getting, there’s little I like more than treating someone and I’ll always do that.
I won’t stop because she doesn’t need what I get her, perhaps you do but then we are clearly different.
Your idea of what a relationship is, and mine, must be different. I don’t need to keep buying her things, but If you stop buying your partner gifts because they no longer need them or you feel you’ve done enough your relationship is on a very steep downward slope.

I am happy to treat someone to special things now and again, but that is by no means the basis for the relationship. You've made it very clear you have money and are happy to splash it on your partner, which is fine, entirely up to you, but please dont kid yourself that the gifts and money are not a big reason she is with you. If you stopped them for whatever reason, would she hang around? Maybe, but probably not.

Which is why I took her to falkirk v Livingston (division 1 in Scottish football) on a bitterly cold Tuesday night in January for our first real date. My mate sat in the back slugging tins of best. I treated her to a romantic stroll because I wasn't paying £4 for parking. I bought her a scotch pie which she politely refused (they all are very thin and eat nothing over there so I assume this to be the reason nothing to do with the fat streaming out it). So I had two and a couple of packets of space raiders for tea.
Like something from Trainspotting

I'm dating a lass from slovakia....i agree with the above tbh. You have to spoil them, treat them like a princess, make them feel there the only woman in the world. Splash the cash.

I get that you enjoy giving and want to, but in my opinion if the major thing keeping my relationship going was me buying presents for my partner, I'd think it was at the bottom of that steep downward slope.I enjoy giving far more than getting, there’s little I like more than treating someone and I’ll always do that.
I'd much rather be in a relationship where I'm told I don't need to buy anything for her birthday so long as I turn up. I'm not brave/stupid enough to actually test the idea though.
