How Much Money Should I Give A 18 Yr Old Boy For His High School Graduation?

August 5th, 2009 | by Frenday |

I dont intend to go over the top here. What is a reasonable amount of money to go in a graduation card?
His parents are filthy rich and make much more than I do.

    I got $0 when I graduated and my younger sister got over $500. Without trying to be bitter, I think $40 is a good amount to give.

    If he is a non-relative give him a card that wishes congratulations. If you know him well add $10. If he is a relative $40-60.

    His parents are rich not him. I give $50. or $100. depending on my families needs not the graduate.
    Good luck!

    Doesn’t matter how rich his parents are. $100 spends the same everywhere you go. I’d say at least $100. If he’s your nephew or something close like that, maybe $150-$200.
    Or a gift card to Denny’s. You know, just whatever. ;)

    $20 sounds about right. Or even $15… he probably has so much money rolling in that he will not remember who gave him how much.

    Hmm, well I’m trying to remember back to what I got, I think mainly 20’s or 50’s. 20’s from close friends and distance family, 50’s only from the really close or rich people. Course I’m from a small town, where 20 bucks got you quite a bit.

    If his parents are filthy rich, chances are that he doesn’t need your money. Get him something he doesn’t have – something thoughtful. How about a season pass to an amusement park? Or a cool gadget for his car? Something nice for his dorm room next year? A sky diving adventure or a flying lesson? Something that he wouldn’t normally get, but would definitely enjoy.

    i graduated last year and received some 20″s like a couple of 50″s and only alittle more from my parents, so i would say between 20$ and 50$ if a good amount depending on what u can offer at the moment and the person”s needs etc. u will know what is appropriate for you and himher. and its the thought that counts anyways :)
