Top 10 Graduation Gifts for Men

Many women complain that men are hard to buy for.  Purchasing a graduation gift for the favorite man in your life, or a close friend or family member requires some thought and imagination. Consider the following top 10 graduation gifts as a guide:

1. Money. It is not crass to give money; in fact it is one of the most appreciated gifts, in any amount. Education is expensive, and most graduates leave school in debt.

1. A car. This is an ambitious gift, but what young man doesn’t want or need a car? A car is an extremely expensive gift, usually reserved as the gift choice of parents who have the financial means. It does not have to be a new sports car. A reliable used vehicle will be appreciated by any young graduate who needs to get around town.

1. A trip. Many graduates have itchy feet after school. If you are a parent, consider a trip an extension of your son’s education and a well deserved respite from the years of study.

1. More education. If your son wishes to go on to graduate school, he will need assistance with tuition, books and other supplies.

1. Gift certificates. It may not seem terribly imaginative, but gift certificates to online or retail outlets are one of the most appreciated gifts. A gift certificate to a men’s clothing store allows your favorite graduate to choose a suit or other clothing, and there is no need to return something because it is the wrong size or color.

1. A briefcase. Your favorite graduate has been walking around campus with a backpack filled with books. As he moves into his professional life, help him look the part. Briefcases come in various styles and price ranges.

1. Jewelry. An engraved watch is always an excellent choice to commemorate a momentous occasion.  You can also purchase the school ring for a financially strapped graduate.

1. Furniture. If the graduate is moving into his own apartment after living on campus, he will appreciate any gift of furniture or home accessories. Shop with an eye for a masculine style of furniture. Wood, leather, metal and dark colors are what most men appreciate.

1. A camera. A digital camera will be appreciated for all of those memories.

1. Electronic equipment. Young men love new technology. A computer, smart phone, mp3 player, games systems are just some of the options that will bring a smile to a young graduate of the male persuasion.

Ask your male friends or family member for suggestions. A gift to a spa sounds like a fabulous gift, and many men would appreciate a day of relaxation. Some men won’t step foot into a spa, preferring a fishing trip. You know his tastes; purchase a suitable, thoughtful gift to mark this memorable occasion.
