    A close friend's son is graduating college with honors in Architecture.
    What would be an appropriate gift?
    If cash, how much?

    A nice pen/writing set.

    One of my father's friends gave me a nice leather notepad and pen set. I still use it all the time when traveling for work.

    Now I'll have to take a picture of it.

    If he is like most recent grads he probably has student loans out the ying-yang, give him cash.

    A young man is graduating. His father gives him a pistol as a graduation present.

    The young man says, „But Dad, I don’t need a pistol - I need a nice wristwatch.“

    Dad says, „No Son, you need a pistol. What are you going to do when you come home one day and find your wife in bed with another man? Look at that fancy wristwatch and yell, ‚Your fucking time is up!‘???“
