Instructions

    • 1

      Get them a session with a financial advisor. This would be a great gift, especially with the current financial situation that we are all in. They can help save you money on taxes and get your 2009 investing plan nailed down.

    • 2

      You can pre-pay someone's tax preparation bill. The national average is between $115 and $150. Find out who they do their taxes with and contact that person and pay them without knowing. Imagine their glee in a few months when they find out!

    • 3

      Get them a subscription to a good financial publication or web site. The Wall Street Journal immediately comes to mind. Action Alerts Plus from The Street is another good one. The Financial Times is also good.

    • 4

      Buy them a couple shares of a stock. You could go with conventional picks like Deere (ticker: DE), Disney, (DIS), or Wal-Mart (WMT). Or perhaps an index fund like the S&P 500. This is the gift that truly keeps on giving (hopefully)!
