[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So monogrammed cufflinks aren’t a thoughtful gift, but cash is? Wow. [/quote] but only if it's a sufficient amount of cash. [/quote] It is pretty standard to give the new teen cash to put towards his/her future. Old school tradition. By giving monogrammed cufflinks they are trying to "cheap out" and make it seem "thoughtful" (adult monogrammed gift) rather than do the traditional. It would be generous from a family friend. But not from grandfather, especially given what his own parents did for his child. However, maybe it's a cover for the dad actually being in a precarious financial situation. Maybe he doesn't have as much money as he pretends to have. Or he's just cheap and his new wife is a ball-b*ster.[/quote]
