A macaw would be my answer, too.
I physically can't have kids, so passing the bird down wouldn't be an option for me. Still, there are plenty of older birds out there who lost their humans and need homes, so if I ever did get a macaw, I'd adopt one of those older "orphaned" birds. The big thing holding me back is the fact that they're so LOUD, and they're so much work! I've heard that having a macaw is like having a toddler that never grows up. My little cockatiel is a lot of work, but I know caring for him is nothing compared to what caring for a macaw would entail.
