Your recent college debt-incurred grad will greatly appreciate any gifts of money. We suggest hiding the big bucks in a less obvious manner. One way is to give your grad a lei made out of money. You can easily determine how much money you wish to give and at the same time, have your grad model their new piece of fashion.
