Graduation gift for nephew
Posted on 5/3/24 at 10:21 am

My nephew graduates from high school this month. Enrolling at University of Florida.
I’d like to buy him a graduation gift that he will keep for life. I suggested a nice watch. Maybe a TAG or even a Breitling. Wife says no - kids don’t wear watches. She says get him an iPad or headphones.
Mom says don’t get him a watch because she already gave him a Gshock.
His dad died when he was 13, so I am the only adult male in his life. Great kid - top of his class, swim team, all state band, finance major, speaks three languages, never been in trouble, won’t clean his room (takes after Mom on that part).
Any thoughts?

I'd get him the watch.
He doesn't have to wear it everyday, he has the Gshock for that. But he can wear it for nice occasions.

Get him a box of condoms and a one year subscription to the jelly of the month club.

Three replies and not one mention of hookers and blow?

Agreed on getting him a nice watch.

Nice watch with his initials engraved on it and maybe his graduation date.
Or gold from Rosland Capital.

Definitely a watch with engraved initials on the back. My son loves his and only wears it on special occasions.

One of my best friends moms got him a box of condoms for college. Just thought that was so weird and not right. My mom would never in a billion years do that.
Also as far as watches go, I don't get them. My phone shows me the time. A lot of my senior HS grad gifts weren't really useful. I would focus way more on something he'll actually use.

Damn, I have 2 nieces graduating in a few weeks and I was going to give them $100

Firearm for sure. Don’t think my kids have ever worn anything other than bracelets of various kinds and FitBits. Although my oldest did choose a pocket watch instead of a graduation ring.

What do you think the condoms and jelly are for?

Engraved Handmade knife or a firearm are awesome gifts that he would keep.

Kids don't care about nice watches and he's not ready for that type of gift.. Take him on a long weekend to Vegas if he's 18.

Ten shares of a stock that has both dividends and growth potential.

As a guy, dont ask women what to get another guy you care about. He will appreciate what the main dude in his life got him, one dude to another.
