8. Just give her a roll of presidential dollars.

Who cares what she spends them on? It's her money.

If you give her any kind of a savings bond or whatever she's going to look at you like, "what the hell is this and how can I get some cash from it?" I don't think any one graduating college right now has any idea what a savings bond or anything similar is.

If you want to really give her something helpful, get her a book on how to manage your finances, get/stay out of debt, and save for retirement. She'll give you the same look as if you gave her the savings bond....but it's something every new college grad needs to know.
